2018 Cederberg Shiraz Juicy red currant aromas with notes of blueberry and hints of stony mineral nuances and tapenade. Focused on the palate, sapid. Decanter 92 2023-03-08
2019 Cederberg Shiraz Rich, perfumed, dense and built to last, this is a full-bodied yet well-structured style from David Nieuwoudt, showing plenty of toasty, dark chocolate oak, blackberry, damson and liquorice fruit, serious tannins and the supporting acidity of its high-altitude site. Tim Atkin 90 2023-03-08
2019 Cederberg Cabernet Sauvignon Cederberg's Cabernet Sauvignon is a reliably well-made style from the talented David Nieuwoudt that packs a lot of flavour at its price point. Cassis, black plum, damson and blackcurrant leaf flavours are framed by toasty 40% new wood and nicely layered tannins. Tim Atkin 91 2023-03-08
2021 Stel+Mar Cabernet Sauvignon Lodi Ripe and rich, with sweet blackberry preserves, dark chocolate, and espresso. Juicy and fragrant with red berries and hibiscus. Tannins are supple and acidity is good. Tasting Panel 90 2023-03-08
2020 Domaine du Pegau Cuvee Reserve Rouge Chateauneuf-du-Pape I was even more impressed by the 2020 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvée Réservée than the 2019. Boasting crazily complex floral scents, garrigue, raspberries and cherries, this is one incredibly perfumed example of Pegau. Medium to full-bodied, silky, elegant and long, this is quintessential Pegau. Wine Advocate 96-98 2023-03-06
2018 Domaine du Pegau Chateauneuf-du-Pape ‘Cuvee Laurence’ Lastly, and a classic expression of the cuvée, the 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Laurence is a longer aged version of the classic Châteauneuf du Pape. It offers a wild array of peppery garrigue, herbes de Provence, saddle leather, and spices in a medium to full-bodied, rich, mouth-filling style. It has plenty of chewy tannins, but I suspect it will shine right out of the gate. Jeb Dunnuck 92-94 2023-03-06
2018 Beausejour Fronsac Lots of juicy fruit with blackberry and blueberry character and hints of flowers, too. Medium body, round tannins and a fresh finish. James Suckling 91-92 2023-02-21
2016 Beausejour Fronsac Full-bodied with lots of blackberry fruit, licorice and a tar undertone. Juicy finish. James Suckling 91-92 2023-02-21
2018 Moulin Rouge Haut-Medoc Cru Bourgeois, Supérieur Stewed blackcurrant, black olive, clove and hazelnut on the nose. Some iodine and tobacco. It’s medium-bodied with firm, chewy tannins framing a juicy core of dark berries. Try from 2023. James Suckling 91 2023-02-21
2021 Punset Barbera d'Alba This is fresh and crunchy with crushed berries, light spices and dried blood orange on offer, followed by a medium body with soft tannins and juicy acidity. Flavorful and attractive. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. James Suckling 90 2023-02-21
