Sep 18th, 2019One blue margarita and truly couldn’t be happier to say goodnight and go home to my next review haha. What do you know the granaritic soils of Paarl do well by a fruit forward Cab. Rich blue and black berries but a grand rip of acid. Wholeheartedly a new world baby, as the earth was minimal, but a simpler offering sometimes is just what you desire. The structure limber and balanced on the light side. It does not demand a steak but it’s surely not bubble gum.It’s a dance partner who has no flair but knows the choreography and rhythm cold.

Oct 31st, 2020Juicy red fruit with a decent amount of finesse for a South African Cabernet. Versatile enough for broiled oysters appetizer and straight into Filet Mignon. Considerably better on second day.

Dec 2nd, 2016Wow! 2012 Vintage! Rarely do you find a Paarl red with this amount of dominant nose. Rich cigar box well blended with Provence herbs. Mouth is rich with yummy tannins and juicy fruit. Great balance. At its peak. RSP R140? 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
