Paul Sauer Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2017

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

Glenelly Estate

Lady May Cabernet Sauvignon Petit Verdot 2017

Dark and brooding, the flagship 2017 Lady May from Glenelly is effusive from the first pour, with aromas of black cherry, purple herbs, baking spice and chocolate. The palate is distinctly savoury, with a spicy quality that represents quite a contrast from prior vintages. This is an altogether quite serious offering and perhaps lacks the glossy suave character of, say, the 2015, which I prefer at this stage. But this should be absolutely fantastic in around 5-10 years’ time and I can’t wait to try it again. — 4 months ago

Natte Valleij Cinsault 2021

17. Distinctive. Good acidity, light but enough fruit, would be refreshing in summer like a St Nicolas de Bourgueil. Not at all like a southern France Cinsault. — a month ago
