I’ve been lucky enough to have had this fantastic wine several times before. But this time it was truly spectaular. It’s full, rich and creamy. Yet so precise and pure in every detail, with layer upon layer of complex flavours. Creme de cassis, blackberries, pencil chavings and cigar box. Super long and multidimensional. Still, It has a long life ahead of it.

Wow! What a fabulous Pauillac from SA. Needed a lot of air to really open up and shake off that burnt rubber notes. Full, ripe, dry and creamy dark fruit with great focus and poise. Cassis, dark plums, spices and tobacco notes in a long savoury finish. Best BX-blend I have had from South Africa.

Drinking great right now. Rich and smooth with mouth watering acid and complex aromas of flowers, raspberries, soy, leather and iron. Had it with porcini and pork fettuccine with parmigiano and thyme, a perfect combination.
