A real charmer, full of dark, ripe, sweet berries, a pinch of spice, some kirsch, a whiff of gingerbread. Very sexy.
On the palate this is medium bodied, round, smooth, velvety with ripe dark fruit, a hint of dark chocolate nibs, with a fresh, herby note, juicy acidity and a very smooth, long finish. The alc (14% alc) is slightly noticeable but overall this is a true crowd pleaser!
Perfect for Valentines Day 😉

@Delectable Wine pinot noir rose and vineyard is roterberg. It’s same producer. Creamy cherries. Wow, juicy and clean. Excellent. Very pure. — a year ago
Funk at first, deep nose, rhubarb, dark cherry, leather,red moss? The nose is deceptively deep at first, but the wine isn’t heavy, it’s meaty on the palate, slightly chewy, dark fruits and savory notes. Chinon in Stellenbosch.
Excellent vino.
Only seven barrels. Put up in “ old French oak”. Very interesting. I bet some more more time would help with the pronounced drying.

Medium ruby . Touch of blackberry and ripe dark fruits , then black pepper , spice and granite . Quite deep and richer fruit , blackberry , dark cherry , touch of bacon fat , fills out nicely on the palate. Raspy tannins , good acidity . Pretty good length. Balanced alcohol . Again needs more time , better in 5 years , will drink well for a further 5-10 — a year ago
