Tasting Notes

90
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Mar 07
(like the 2004, this includes bits of merlot and cabernet franc) Deep ruby-red. Blackcurrant and tobacco on the nose, along with a wilder game and animal fur character. Fatter, sweeter and lusher on entry than the 2004, then intense but by no means overripe in the mouth, with notes of chocolate, smoke, meat, cedar and minerals. Not green but there's a cooler-vintage character here. Van Rensburg says this will need a good decade of patience-longer than the 2004. Very suave wine, finishing with big, broad tannins.

South Africa

South African wines blend Old World elegance with New World fruit-forwardness, offering diverse styles from regions like Stellenbosch, Paarl, and Franschhoek. The country is famous for Pinotage, a unique grape producing bold, earthy wines with dark berry and smoky notes. South Africa also excels in Chenin Blanc, both crisp and oak-aged. Stellenbosch is renowned for Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Top producers include Kanonkop (Pinotage), Hamilton Russell (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir), and Klein Constantia (Vin de Constance).
