Excellent. Very similar comments to previously. Colour: bright, deep blackberry Bouquet: aromatic, smokey, spicy blueberries, blackberries, liquorice, roasted coffee, black pepper Palate: like bouquet, lots of black fruits, forest floor, plus raspberry and dark chocolate, gamey, opens out to be a big wine with gorgeous fine grained soft tannins, fruit is fresh but coffee, liquorice and pepper characters really come to the fore. Great balance from acid though, and long very cleaning dry finish. July 2019

Color: Garnet Red Nose: smokey, charred meat, slightly a floral undertone. Palate: Dark chocolate, but has a metallic finish. Tannins: low tannins 4.5 Body: thin Opinion: love the nose. Palate is very disappointing. Seems like a cheap Pinotage.
