Minimus Johan Vineyards Mondeuse St. Laurent 2018

Two cool varietals. I havent had St Laurent or Monteuse in ages. The plan? Create two separate, single varietal wines from these grapes. But when they were finished fermenting, they had a little leftover of each so they put them together in a barrel. When they tasted the resulting blend, they realized that the combination was better than either alone.

This is a full bodied and intense wine with rustic red fruit, good herb and spice, and high tanninic structure. Savory and dry. So unique.

Murmuration Van Duzer Corridor AVA Pinot Noir Blaufränkisch

60% Pinot Noir 40% Blaufränkisch in this vintage although later vintages will vary. Best of both worlds. Lots of great red fruit, but a little more farmy funk and minerality. Also with mushroom risotto from the farm box. — 10 months ago

Reyneke

Cornerstone Stellenbosch Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2018

Johan Reyneke’s Cornerstone blend is a match for many a decent Bordeaux, and in the 2018 vintage is particularly good. Replete with classical aromas of cassis, pencil shavings and cedar, the palate follows with great elegance, structure and a chalky, long finish. If anything, I’d prefer a little more savoury character as this tends towards sweetness (but not over-extraction), but it’s young right now! It’s extraordinary how inexpensive this wine is - it would knock the socks of some Bordeaux Crus Classés in a blind tasting. — a year ago
