  • Not too great unfortunately. A bit alcoholic and lacking balance. Maybe the bottle?

  • Still youthful and needs air but then shows classic Pinotage flavors of dark fruit, leathers, road tar and smoky spices. Firm acidity lays over a plush palate that leads to a complex spicy finish. This unique and underrated wine has a great track record for aging and needs more time to really strut its stuff. 92+

  • In the decanter 2 and a half hours prior to drinking, drunk over the next half hour. A little muted on the nose for me, with notes of vanilla pod and a touch of mocha. Starting opening up as the bottle was finishing, suggesting longer decant needed.

  • Really wonderful wine that punches way above its weight vintage after vintage. Medium-bodied and ripe but not overdone with delicious flavors of black fruits, licorice and tarpit. There is enough acidity and the texture is smooth and layered which leads to a fine finish with notes of bitter chocolate and smoky minerals. This is fully integrated now but with plenty of life left given its excellent track record for aging. 92+

  • This is maturing nicely but still quite youthful showing delicious flavors of dark chocolate and graphite. Rather ripe fruit but it's balanced well by good acidity and excellent freshness with uplifting notes of eucalyptus and dark spices. Finishes taut and complex with notes of road tar and minerals. One of the better Pinotage's in almost every vintage. 91+
