This wine was soooo good when we tasted it at the tasting room in Franschhoek. Purchased a few bottles and brought it home. Carefully preserving for the ‘perfect’ occasion…. but when is that? So just open it when we felt like it. Much better plan!!! 😎. Not quite like I remember unfortunately. But still good. Some stringent flavors throwing it off balance. Not quite the depth of flinty, mineral flavors as I had stored away in my memory. Also not quite the intensity and the length. But….it did bring us back to a wonderful time we had in South Africa (that day!).

Superkomplex skönhet. Först oljig frukt och skalbeska. Sen väldigt gräsig, lagrad ost med bra munfyllande textur. Mineraliskt bett. Avslutas med superinbjudande doft. Sjukt kul att testa detta "nya" Sydafrika.
