Stellenbosch Reserve Merlot

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:46:46 +0000

Bright, bold red fruit jump out of the glass – red currants, fresh plums and cinnamon. The palate shows juicy raspberry and redcurrant, with a fresh stone-fruit acidity. Fine, ripe tannins balance well with the pure red-fruit profile; layers of all spice, crème caramel and toast providing complexity and depth. Polished and medium bodied, with a savoury finish which makes this wine a pleasure to drink.

Stellenbosch Reserve Syrah

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:46:46 +0000

An attractive nose of expressive black berries and crème de cassis that combine with pepper-spice and cured meat. Ripe, velvety tannins balance well with the expressive black fruit on the palate with notes of caramel and nutmeg adding complexity to savoury notes of black pepper, cedar, and toast. The rich fruit profile and judicious use of oak provide beautiful mid-palate weight. The finish is savoury with a note of perfume.

Stellenbosch Reserve Cinsault

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:43:45 +0000

Red fruit and spice make an appealing combination on the nose. Aromas of pomegranate juice, spicy cherry compote and raspberry are prominent. The juicy red fruit carries through on the palate with flavours of red current and cranberry supported by a lively acidity, and notes of pancake spice. The complexity of flavours bring a weightiness to an otherwise light, fresh and easy drinking wine.

Stellenbosch Reserve Chardonnay

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:43:44 +0000

Distinctive Chardonnay with an inviting nose of lime, lemon curd and buttered popcorn. The palate shows complex citrus aromas, from fresh lemon and lime to orange zest with a hint of mint. Flavours of walnuts and brioche add depth, balanced by a lively acidity that lifts a creamy softness on the mid-palate. A dry, savoury finish begs for another sip!

Stellenbosch Reserve Chenin Blanc

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:43:44 +0000

Fragrant floral scents of elderflower and orange blossom knit together with fresh pineapple, cantaloupe and white peach. The appealing nose follows through on the palate. Crisp acidity is accompanied by delicate creaminess that adds weight to the mid-palate. Fresh and light, with well-balanced fruit and oak components, and a lingering citrus finish.

Stellenbosch Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Louis Coetzee — Wed, 02 Jun 2021 08:43:44 +0000

Expressive dark fruit on the nose, showing ripe aromas of cassis, black cherry and Christmas cake, with savoury notes of toast and sandalwood. The bold fruit creates a juicy and textured mouthfeel, with mouth-coating tannin that is fine yet grippy, with an elegant raspberry freshness. Balance is provided by savoury notes of cigar box. A classic example of Stellenbosch Cabernet.
