The Wolftrap Syrah Blend 2023

Tree Kilpatrick
8.9

Light color. Rusty red. Smells like rosehip tea and hibiscus. Flavors a pretty complex and intriguing. Has a bit of a citrus (blood orange) side. Fine and full finish. This is a complex and nice balanced rule of red. — a day ago

Incredible wine. 6 different grape types in this wine. Easy to drink. The one we had was a 2018. Easy to make an everyday wine. — a month ago

T'Voetpad White Blend 2021

Andrew Cullimore
9.2

Medium straw colour . Quite reserved on the nose , cool green apple , slightly chalky , mineral notes . On the palate this is quite saline and mineral focused , with high acidity , bone dry , green fruits , slightly creamy texture . Good length. This can age really quite well and is pretty young at the moment , would be inclined to leave another 3-4 years and will drink well a further 5-10 . — 10 days ago

Haven’t seen this in OZ but Sadie Family have been producing some terrific wines including Semillon and Chenin blends. I had a Kokerboom (Semillon) recently and highly recommend.
Probably one of the best South African producers - both white and red.

@David White South African wines are generally hard to come by in Australia for some reason. I agree regarding Sadie wines. Their Columella (Syrah) I had a few years ago was excellent.

@David White and @Bob McDonald yes I have had a few of their wines , and have been very impressed , great purity and precision … I actually shared a bottle of their Cinsault ‘ Pofadder’ with an Aussie friend of mine recently who bought it in a very good and diverse wine shop in Taipei … very difficult to find it in Sydney apparently

The 2017 Paul Sauer is a Bordeaux blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc and 7% Merlot with good acidity integrated tannins and rich fruits showing through
A gorgeous offering and representing the art of blending in the South African wine business at the moment.
Excellent wine. And a worthy OTBN (22/2/25) wine — 20 days ago

Easy to drink. You can enjoy this well made wine with food or without. A little fat on your pallet will open up this accessible but not inexpensive wine and you will enjoy some nice fruits. — a month ago
