Rainbow’s End
I am unashamedly a white wine fan but
from time to winter time, one does enjoy the occasional red. These were indeed
a pot o’ gold!
RED:
- Cabernet Sauvignon (2010): Over ripe strawberries with covered up spices, slightly rotting cherries, Marmite, boiled up berries with rhubarb, like sipping a floor plan, baked bluegum leaves.
- Cabernet Sauvignon (2011): Cherry chocolate pudding, sweet spiced jam, plum skin, slightly alcoholic, meaty
- Cabernet Franc (2011): Green peppercorn mulberries, green peppercorns on cherry tart, clingy velvet, slightly harsh, like bluegum pods & leaves
- Cabernet Franc (2012): Bush vine, 1 clone, 3 – 4 barrels produced. Sugar cinnamon raspberries, cinnamon steak, sharp fresh cherries with nutmeg, cheeky tart, would age. “Cab fab”
- Mount Vernon Galileo (2011): Cab Sauv, Petit Verdot, Merlot & Malbec. Creamed cherries with spice, sour cherries, soft but sharp at the end.
NOTES:
- No whites or rose
- Specialize in classic Bordeaux style
- Area (Banghoek) – ideal for Bordeaux varietals
