2017 Tierhoek Sandveld Sauvignon Blanc, Burton, Piekenierskloof

Add to Wishlist

Tierhoek, Drink now,

This Sauvignon Blanc is elegant and refined, with subtle flavours of blackberry leaf and passion fruit complementing a mineral core. Old World in style, it has rested on its fine lees for seven months, which has given the palate additional weight and texture. The wine is expressive with a tension that adds complexity. The property is one of the oldest surviving Sandveld farms, where leopards abound, and which is ideal for growing aromatic whites due to the higher altitude. Although not certified organic, the farm adopts an organic approach to be able to produce high-quality wines that express terroir.

2017 Mullineux, Kloof Street Rouge, Swartland, South Africa

Add to Wishlist

Mullineux & Leeu Family Wines, Drink now,

Mullineux was established by husband and wife winemakers Chris and Andrea Mullineux. Since 2007, their ambition has been to produce wines that are a true expression of the Swartland. They work closely with a select group of growers who follow sustainable, reasoned farming practices.

Syrah makes up the majority of this blend and the grape’s presence is immediately clear from the pepper spice on the nose and mid-palate. This spice is met by juicy red fruit and rose perfume. Supple tannins and flecks of shale minerals give this wine a complexity that belies its price. Drink now to 2021.

Since its inception, Tierhoek has adopted organic and sustainable practices to produce high-quality wines that express this exceptional terroir.

This Chenin Blanc has a glorious depth of flavour and rich mouth-feel, with aromas of orchard fruit, greengage and honeysuckle on the nose. Stony, savoury notes underpin the honeyed fruit on the palate, while fresh acidity brings added vibrancy. Drink now to 2022.

2017 Constantia Glen, Two, Constantia, South Africa

Add to Wishlist

Constantia Glen, Drink now,

Aromas of apricot, green herbs and cut grass entice on the nose. On the palate, more tropical notes of passionfruit and papaya layer with ripe peach and nettle. The Sémillon brings depth and rich texture to the blend, complementing the racy acidity and fresh aromatics of the Sauvignon Blanc. This would pair beautifully with fragrant dishes and seafood. Drink now to 2027.

2017 Craven, Firs Vineyard Syrah, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Add to Wishlist

Craven, Drink now,

From a slightly warmer, inland site in comparison to the Faure Syrah, this wine still embodies ripe dark-fruit characters. it exudes bramble and briar notes and classic pepper spice. The tannins are fine and well-crafted; the acidity fresh. Iodine and sweet blackberries drive the precise finish. Not your usual Stellenbosch Syrah, it is far more elegant and restrained. This pairs beautifully with slow cooked leg of lamb. Drink now to 2022. Katherine Dart MW, Buyer (spring 2018)

2017 Scions of Sinai, Swanesang, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Add to Wishlist

Drink now,

Firm and polished with some real Syrah character. Well done! Proper wine by any measure. Savoury but ripe fruit.
Jancis Robinson (winter 2018)

This is an elegantly proportioned single-site Syrah. The nose is layered and complex with aromas of violet, blueberry and rosemary. The palate reveals darker berry fruit and a more savoury profile with notes of black peppercorn.
Swanesang (Swansong) refers to this single vineyard’s tragic fate. Like many of the old dry-farmed bush vines in the Lower Helderberg, it was grubbed up at the end of the 2017 harvest. This particular block produced many of the wines made on the old Bredell farm.

2017 Storm, Vrede, Pinot Noir, Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, South Africa

Add to Wishlist

Ready, but will keep,

Hannes Storm had been working in the Hemel-en- Aarde Valley as a winemaker for 12 vintages, when he came across some exceptional vineyards sites that tempted him to strike out on his own. Storm Wines’ maiden vintage was 2012. Hannes’s goal is to express the purity of the site and the variety, working meticulously in the vineyard and keeping intervention during winemaking to a minimum.

The Vrede vineyard is situated on steep north-east facing slopes and is the embodiment of Pinot Noir. The fruit is ripe and juicy, but it is not too overt and remains elegant, nodding towards dark berries with floral undertones. The tannins are fine and woven with the fruit and fresh acidity. Drink now to 2021.
