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 — 14 hours ago

Exceptional wine - deep ruby color with a huge bouquet of violet, plum, black pepper, black cherry, licorice, vanilla, clove, prune and dried rose petal. Velvet tannins, the alcohol is well balanced with the fruit and full-bodied texture. Still in its infancy but already delicious, this wine has a stunning future — 9 days ago

One of those unicorn wines. Just a unique wine made of blend of varietals. Mostly Cab but some Pinot in there too. 2003 gives it a brickish color. Gorgeous wine with lively fruit and good acidity; lingering on the palate. “Daumas Gassac apparently has a geological formation unique in the Languedoc: chalky, friable, poor in humus, the bits of earth ranging in size from mere grains of sand to little stones, a soil similar in aspect, similar in constitution, to that of the Côte d’Or and the Italian Friuli.” Excerpt from Adventures of The Wine Route. — 2 months ago

Beautiful glass filling nose with flowers and tar followed by dark bramble, smoke, leather and liquorice. Pretty chewy tannines and a long finish. Wine got very divergent notes and ratings on ct but I am liking this a lot. No blockbuster over extracted powerhouse but freshness and complexity. Very glad to have 5 more. — 15 days ago

High expectations for this wine. Great vintage and great producer

Starts out dark and closed. Appears to need a lot of airtime. Into the decanter

2 hours later it’s paired with short ribs and the fattiness seems to bring out some better flavor and the dark flavors really complement the meat.

Post dinner this wine is beginning to show something but it’s still dark brooding and too tight.

I’m going to let the other bottles sit for a few years. I’ve found the more recent coombsville wines from 2019 and forward to me a lot more open and fruity. — a month ago
