DELUXE CASE

Clos Malverne Shiraz Rose MCC Ellie

The initial orange blossom, peach and burnt sugar aromas give way to more exotic wax, rosemary, caraway and sea-shore notes. It is layered and complex, and evolves beautifully in the glass. The palate is fine, structured and rich with flavours of quince and tea-leaf that settle into a long finish.

Vondeling Babiana

Golden subtle straw with a yellow edge.The wine has a deliciously complex, spicy nose of ginger, jasmine, coconut and peaches. Fresh with touches of white pepper, citrus blossoms, honey and pears. The oak is well balanced and the wine has a high degree of finesse. The mid-palate is very smooth and slightly creamy, but still tight, with a fresh citrus influence and a long, lingering aftertaste.

Carinus Chenin Blanc

From a 1981 Swartland vineyard and involving three pickings at different levels of ripeness. Matured for 10 months in third- and fourth-fill barrels. Peach, apple, some earth and a little oxidative complexity. Great fruit purity, zippy acidity and a lovely savoury finish. A delight to drink. 91 points Christian Eedes

Clos Malverne Auret

The flagship of the range! A unique, full bodied red blend with Pinotage. Blueberry & raspberry succulence vies with earthy chocolate. Svelte & seamless. Will mature for five to seven years.

Barton Merlot

The wine was aged for 18 months in 100% French Oak barrels of which 25% was new wood, 25% 2nd, and 50% each 3rd and 4th fill. Subtle taste of black berries, plums and a deep earthy taste.

Boschkloof Syrah

Complex and attractive bouquet of oriental spices with pronounced violet and white pepper flavours. It has lovely ripe fruit and a perfumed background on the nose. There are also lovely integrated tannins on the palate. Well balanced wine with spicy overtones and a lingering finish. Very classic style with unmistakable Rhone flavours. Certified and bottled on the farm. Good to drink now, but will develop and mature over the next 10 years.

CLASSIC CASE

Babylonstoren Viognier

This dry, slightly wooded, medium-bodied white wine is creamy with a floral nose and lime zest finish that provides the perfect balance to the depth of wood. Silver medal winner at the 2015 Michelangelo Wine Awards.

Spier Chenin Blanc

This Chenin Blanc is both crisp and fruity with green guava, pear, apple and hints of litchi on the nose. A well-balanced palate and a strong finish.

Horse Mountain White Blend

This is a blend of Chenin, Viognier, Roussanne & Grenache Blanc with the wine nicely portraying the individual characteristics of all four cultivars (varietals). The Chenin citrus mid palate is complemented by the Viognier’s dried apricots and together with the Roussanne’s pungent perfume and the Grenache’s texture it makes for a wonderful wine.
