Just like my wife, this wine is way too good for me (and I probably don’t understand it as well I’d like). So instead of irreverent write-ups, here’s the stats: Decanter Gold 2011, SA Top 100 Wine, Veritas 2010 Gold, Gold Medal Michealangelo 2010. 83% Shiraz, 8% Grenache, 5% Mouvedre, 4% Viognier.
I am not a wine expert. I am not in the wine industry. I can get a bit pretentious when describing wine sometimes, and other times I can't think of a word to describe what I'm tasting. I do love wine, drink a lot of it, live in the Western Cape of South Africa and visit a lot of wine farms though.
Hopefully this site will help strangers to SA wine pick a good bottle over a bad one, and visit the better wine farms that I've enjoyed. At worst, at least I will be able to use it to remember what is was I was drinking last night!
