A full-bodied blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Cabernet Franc.
It is very expressive on the nose with sour blueberry & cherry aromas competing well with blackcurrant leaf & soft smoke.
On the palate, there are good firm tannins with lots of restrained red & black fruit with hints of vanilla, spice & dark roasted coffee.
A succulent wine with a long finish. ...
A smooth rich wine made from the Cape's own grape Pinotage blended with Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot.
This blend offers abundant aromas of deep red cherry fruit, sweet caramel & fragrant cigar smoke.
It has a great depth of dark fruit flavour on the palate that continues on the long finish.
An extremely versatile blend that can be paired with many foods such as seared tuna & roasted meats.
The wine could also be paired with venison as the vibrant pinotage component will complement some of the game meat flavours. A mature cheese would also be well suited.

100% Sangiovese, this is a seductive wine.
Sweet tobacco, dried herb, mint & dried red cherry notes are all laced together in this decidedly savoury wine.
Delicate & lithe on the palate, open-knit & gracious, Bilaccio is a good example of Il Borgetto's distinctive house style. ...
Clante is the name the Etruscans gave to the hills now called Chianti Classico.
This wine is a barrel selection of the finest of Borghetto's Sangiovese & represents the best their vineyards have to offer.
Powerful & punchy, with tons of whole cluster character, this wine has a lot to offer.
Orange peel, star anise, mint & spice add a distinctive element of exoticism.
The Clante lives in its own realm, a world completely apart from the norm in Chianti Classico.
More importantly, it is an absolutely compelling wine. ...
A deep ruby red in colour, with lifted perfumes of dark fruits, plums & cherries & a hint of mocha.
This wine has soft, ripe tannins & a delicious chocolate-cherry finish.
2016 was a challenging vintage in Abruzzo. The severe frost in April damaged some of the vineyards. Even the summer days were interrupted by periods of grey skies & misty rains, which persisted into harvest. Yields were generally lower, & wines showed slightly less body & lower alcohol. ...
Crystalline in appearance, straw-yellow in colour with good consistency.
The bouquet is intense, complex & fine, with overtones of flowers, fresh fruit such as apple, peach & a hint of exotic fruit, good mineral tones.
The frankness of the varietal bouquet that is typical of the Garganega grape & the elegant hints of ripe & dried fruit give this wine excellent harmony & structure. ...
Light crisp & refreshing white, straw green in colour.
White flowers, apple & exotic fruits on the nose which follow in the mouth to a delicate, citrusy, dry with an almondy & mineral finish. ...
Low sulphur/ sulphur-free wines often get poor feedback...but not this wine one, this is as fresh as a daisy!
Striking rich exotic nose.
Rich ripe rhubarb & custard with a straw & herb edge to the savoury nutty palate.
Excellent Minerality. ...
