Springfield Estate 2016 Méthode Ancienne Cabernet Sauvignon
A concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon, opening with blackcurrant, ripe plum, violet and dark chocolate around warm spice and toasted cedar. The full-bodied palate remains composed, its dense fruit held by firm, finely shaped tannins and the measured influence of French barriques. Freshness and savoury detail carry the wine through a long finish with ample depth and quiet authority.
De Toren 2019 Fusion V Stellenbosch
Blueberry, tart black cherry and plum lead, with dark chocolate, olive and subtle tobacco adding savoury depth. Rich and full-bodied, the palate feels round and composed, combining concentrated black fruit with finely polished, silky tannins. Balanced freshness keeps the power in check before a long finish of earth, spice and dark berries.
Mulderbosch 2025 Cabernet Sauvignon Rose
Fresh strawberry opens with a subtle chalky note and a bright copper-pink hue. The palate is succulent and fruit driven, but early-picked acidity keeps it poised and refreshing rather than broad. A fine mineral line brings definition to the clean, balanced finish. Serve with grilled tuna, salmon, tomato salads or light mezze.
Mulderbosch 2023 Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch
Green apple and white peach develop into pear and ripe melon, with a subtle savoury note beneath the fruit. Partial maturation in neutral wood adds breadth without obvious oak flavour. Fresh, textured and dry, the palate finishes with orchard fruit and a light mineral edge. Pair with roast chicken, seafood or creamy vegetable dishes.
Rust En Vrede 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon
An expressive South African Cabernet with black cherry, cassis, blueberry, liquorice and sandalwood. Full-bodied and intense, the palate balances juicy dark fruit with fresh acidity and fine-grained, grippy tannins. Tobacco, nutmeg and savoury spice add layered detail to mulberry and bramble notes, carrying the wine through a long finish. Give it air and serve with grilled beef or lamb.
