I really like these smoky, earthy wines from Stellenbosch and Paarll. Such great values! Nose of beautiful dark fruit, burnt leaves, roasted vanilla and crushed rocks. Tastes burnt wood, tobacco smoke and cassis. Amazing QPR.

Although color was a little light, the flavor was quite robust, lots of chocolate notes. My friend said he wouldn't crawl a mile over broken glass for the last bottle.

Chock full of ripe, dark fruits on the attack; rich, chocolatey, spicy midpalate; good depth and concentration throughout. Just a touch overblown for my palate. Acidity also on the aggressive side. Still, quite a serious wine for the price. I'd quite like to try this again in winter as it seems quite bloated on a warm, humid day in August. In fact, why I am I drinking this now? I am a tosser.
