Well balanced with endless layers of dark, dry fruit, Cuban cigar, cider, and clove. A fifteen year old Cab driven blend will great vibrancy and intensity. Vergelegen is a beautiful wine estate/farm in South Africa, between Stellenbosch and Somerset. You can tour the hundreds of acres Estate in a landrover like a safari. Fantastic visit!! Talking about visits…we, Spoken Wines, are packing our bags again and start another journey finding wine diamonds in the rough and tell their stories. Not in South Africa this time, but Argentina and Chile! Find us on Instagram to follow our journey. Question: any recommendations for Chile wineries to visit?? We will be in the Aconcagua Valley north of Santiago and in the Rapel Valley south of Santiago. I am not very familiar with Chile and would love to get some recommendations to reach out to. 🙏🙏 — 2 months ago

Not a huge amount on the nose. But lovely crisp, herby, mineral palate. Very long finish. Possibly still on the young side but drinking well — 4 years ago

A really rounded, well made Shiraz in (what I think) is a northern Rhône style. Earthy aroma with plenty of dark fruit. It’s dry, savoury and acidic in the mouth, with just the right amount of tannin. Certainly not brawny - if anything a little lean. The finish is long, with plenty of mocha notes. — 6 years ago

Unbelievable quality:price ratio. Classic SB bursting with currant leaves, herbs and fruit, full bodies but still fresh — 2 years ago

17.5/20 (93/100) Вино с ароматами крыжовника, смородинового листа, можжевельника и нотой тушеного сладкого перца. Тельное, маслянистое с высокой кислотностью. Насыщенное во вкусе. Ароматное и «мускулистое» белое вино. #capewine2018 — 6 years ago

Fantastic left bank Bordeaux. Dark, super dry fruit. Minerally with this so district graphite/lead pencil under notes. Just returned from South Africa where we were blown away with the quality wines they are producing from their stunning vineyards. We were able to stuff 36 bottles on our suitcases. Yes Shiraz and Pinotage and Chenin blanc are their signature wines but places like Vergelegen, Villafonte and BoschenDal are making fantastic Bordeaux blends. We just had to check it against our references once we got home… — 2 years ago
