That was a great bottle. Dark cherry, red currant, cassis, cedar wood and well integrated tannins. The wine is in its top drinking spot and will keep there for 3+ years. What a wonderful wine.

Full of nice dark red berries, a bit leather, a sense from the oak barrels.
But still, there are tannins, that can soften and make the wine even more matured and soft!

Let it develop!

Atkin 95+ Tasting Event (and dinner wines) (Strauss Auction, Cape Town (and Jo'burg)): The nose combines wood smoke, dried rosemary, and ripe blackberry aromas, intertwined with streaks of vanilla and spicy oak.
Full-bodied, the wine exudes richness, with a mid-palate filled with ripe blackberry and well-integrated oak spices. Dense and firm tannins leave a lasting impression. Impressive.
Has 70% new oak. 93+

Good dark and red fruit, dark cherry, leafy black currant, some bell pepper, vegetal notes, chocolate, espresso, tobacco, intense spice notes, smoke, and mint, with medium-level acidity, mostly resolved and well-integrated tannin, and good length. Medium-bodied, with a lightly creamy texture, average concentration, and good balance. A little rustic on the finish, but somewhat intriguing overall. Very South African! And full of character. In a good place. I suggest drinking now and over the next four or five years.

The back label of this wine says "Drink now or keep for up to three years from vintage". Hartenberg should have more faith in the quality of their wines! Youthful-looking bright medium yellow. Lemon, ripe grapefruit, apple, quince, tropical notes, toast, oak spice, and light smoke, with good acidity, and very good length. Medium- to full-bodied, with good concentration and complexity, a lightly creamy texture, and very good persistence. Equally good on day two. Very youthful. Drink now, and for at least another five years.

Classic nose of ripe blackcurrant, roasted bell peppers, tobacco and clove. Palate echoed the nose with overtones of cassis bell pepper on the entry. Nice acidity in the structure. This is followed by a powerful but polished mid-palate that extends for a long time to a supple finish. Ready to drink now and will continue to hold for the next 5 years. A good wine for steaks.

Nice Shiraz. Plenty of savoury fruit, blue and blackberries. A somewhat medicinal tint but in no way unpleasant. Leather and smoke. Good acidity. tannins a bit solid. Medium length. Not at all bad but it was a night of star bottles.

Bright daffodil; steely, crushed rock; dryness augmented by high acidity, taut, suppressed fruit; phenolic edge to long finish. Best drunk soon.

Soft, strong curtains which takes it’s time to develop. Licorice, stable, dark plumen, fruity, power, lots of dark berries. On the nose a bit of stable but underpins fruityness.
Still to be kept for storing!

10-12 months barrique maturation in French oak barrels, 20% new. Grapes were picked in the early morning when temperature - close to the ocean - was still low.
Pretty creamy Chardonnay with pear, bitter almonds, smokey oak, vanilla, minerals, and some freshness (7 g/l TA vs 2.6 g/l RS).
Don't drink too cold as bitter notes are more prominent.
