One of my favorite sub-$15 bottles. Just ridiculously drinkable. Pours a bright magenta color on the rim and has an earthy, bold fruit and perfume scented nose. The palate has good weight on it and juicy red fruit with a slight floral quality for the vintage. Definitely less florality than previous vintages I've had, but that shouldn't stop you. It's worth it.

Surprisingly complex for the price point, showing soft peppery spices red plum.

Juicy, round, gamey, intriguing. All you could ask for in a $10 bottle, especially one geeks will sip, too. #SouthAfrica

This wine will only get better with age. Buy a case, open a bottle every year. 🍷

Unique blend of Syrah and Mourvèdre with just a little Viognier from South Africa. Flavorful with some spice and a nice oak finish.

Great value! I don't easily branch out into these grapes. Initially fruity,but not too light. Bold and flavorful.
