  En blandning av 92% cinsault och 8% syrah, en ovanlig mix.
  
  En förtjusande doft av hallon, sötlakrits, något blommigt mittemellan lavendel och viol, farligt nära gränsen till godispåse men klarar balansgången och landar på rätt sida av ”god smak” med båda fötterna på marken.
  I munnen är vinet lätt och elegant, röda bär, sötfruktigt, smidigt men smakrikt, klar hög syra (skär lätt igenom en gräddig pastasås), lätta tanniner, mycket väl sammansatt. Gott med finess. Det enda som skvallrar om Sydafrika är en lätt rökig mineralton i eftersmaken. Visar tydligt att i rätt händer kan även cinsault stå på egna ben.

  92% Cinsault and 8% Syrah; 50% whole-bunch fermentation. Pretty and lifted aromatics with sweet, but not quite candied red fruit. Good freshness and concentration. Reminded me of the Comando G style that’s going for purity and transparency of fruit (and I liked this better than most Comando Gs that I’ve tried). Another great value.

  Lay & Wheeler South Africa tasting (Glazier's Hall): Lifted rose petal, spice, raspberry and strawberry. Light bodied but concentrated. Intensely perfumed and deliciously clean. Light tannins and great acidity. Really super. And impossible to find :-(
