Not a strong smell. Has a light, delicate taste that lasts surprisingly long. It comes from a very small winery in South Africa, so it’s hard to find. I really enjoyed it. — 6 years ago
Majestic. Skin contact. Tea and orange peels. Good complexity. — a year ago
I haven’t had a new world cab Sauvignon in ages. This maker gets some press as she is working in a former apartheid state, but really this wine deserves kudos: most of all contains tension & a wirey ness that belies its cab Sauvignon credentials. Serious chocolate notes. Drink it on cold room temp side & you will be happy. Good wet winter night wine. — 5 years ago
Interesting project pairing U.S. winemakers with those from emerging global economies. Ntsiki Biyela, the South African half of this pairing, is a rising star and I'm dying to get her stuff solo. This one's a unique blend, at least for me: Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, with some Malbec and merlot. Rich and ripe, dark fruit, fairly straightforward but wonderfully intense flavor. — 10 years ago
What a great wine. When looking for a South African wine, this one was recommended. Happy to support a woman owned business. This wine was fantastic. Leather, violet and some tart cherry on the nose. Medium body with leather and plum throughout. Tannins linger on the finish with some bright fruit flavor lingering as well. Made a South African dinner to pair and this was a great wine to go along with bobotie, chakalaka, and chicken sosaties. Would buy this one again in a heartbeat. — 2 years ago
Clean, citrusy Chardonnay. Lots of lime, some tropical fruit, subtle oak and some herbal notes in nose — 6 years ago

Medium gold in color; Lemon, honeysuckle, and maybe pineapple on the nose; medium plus acidity; tastes like starfruit, yellow apple, and saline with a long finish. Nellie says it's ok. I like it. — a year ago
