Double blind wine tasting. 3 Whites and 3 Reds:

1. ‘18 Hamilton Russell Chard - WOTN across both whites and reds - complex, refined, fruit integrated with honey, oak, butter, cream, camomile.

2. ‘20 Hartenberg The Eleanor Chard - big wine that could use a few years. Nice fruit and lovely acidity. Mix between a White Burg and Rhone Blend.

3. ‘22 Far Niente Chard - potential, very young, not the best QPR. Reminded me of young Paul Hobbs single vineyard Chards.


1. ‘12 Giacomo Fenocchio 90 di Riserva Barolo - aged showed through nicely, but still lively with dark cherries and ample tannins.

2. ‘20 Vilafonte - decanted, but young and an absolutely massive wine. Black fruit, chewy, with decent sweetness.

3. ‘02 Origin Red Blend - nose of black tar and cigars. Zero fruit and big tar, tobacco, and bbq flavors. Bigger wine than I was expecting.

Great night with great friends!

16.5/20 (90/100) Аромат спелых ягод черешни и ежевики, слив, молочного шоколада и конфет. Тельное с умеренной кислотностью и интенсивными, вяжущими, но бархатистыми по текстуре танинами. Типичный Стелленбош. #capewine2018 — 6 years ago

Was recommended this blend from Hartenberg Cellar from the slopes of the Bottelary Hills Stellenbosch. It surprised me being elegant and classy on the palate and nose. Give it a try hopefully as a blend it won’t disappoint. — 3 years ago

Opaque and concentrated. Savory and meaty with dark raspberry and blackberry fruit as well as licorice and spice.

Perfect tannin for beef bourguignon, watching the bizarre Local Hero. Sadly my last bottle of this, should drink well for many more years. — 8 months ago

all the characteristics I profess to dislike but this wine put it all together seamlessly. Still wonderfully fresh and a joy to drink — 7 years ago
