Klein Constantia 1989 Vin de Constance
$499.99Amber and intensely aromatic, unfolding through blood orange, dried persimmon and honeyed apricot. Bitter almond, clove and green tea bring mature complexity, while a spicy Muscat lift keeps the palate vivid. Rich caramel and marzipan tones are balanced by clear acidity, leading to a long, savoury-sweet finish that invites slow, contemplative drinking.
Scali 2016 Syrah
$53.99A dark-fruited Syrah with ripe plum and blackberry, joined by violet, black pepper, fennel and local herbal notes. The palate is balanced and savoury, with firm tannins, steady acidity and a clear mineral thread supporting the fruit. Long and composed on the finish, it is a natural match for grilled lamb, beef, mushrooms or peppered dishes.
Scali 2016 Pinotage Voor-Paardeberg WO
$53.99Seductive ripe red berries lead, layered with warm spice and a stony mineral note. The palate is balanced and succulent, with concentrated fruit carried by a velvety tannin structure rather than overt weight. Gentle savoury oak and fresh acidity bring definition before a smooth, lingering and quietly spicy finish.
