100% Montepulciano As good as it gets at this price, deep colour, fresh plummy fruit on the nose. The palate is rich, supple and easy drinking, a little spice and fresh acid make it well balanced and great value.
|
Fairly full and aromatic, lots of dried fruit aromas with spice and a little caramel. Dry on the finish with spices and marmalade. Very long in the mouth.

100% Shiraz Fantastic example of this variety, which is increasingly being planted in South Africa. Black pepper, spice and dark fruit on the nose. The palate has an earthy feel with more spice and blackberries, integrated tannins and a long finish.
|
Australia's finest producer of Riesling and he rivals the very best in the World. He makes two Polish Hill and Watervale. The former is astonishingly intense but needs 10 Years to show its best, and this the Watervale is elegant and restrained, but much more forward and ready to drink.

100% Pinot Bianco Very floral and citrusy on the nose, the palate is medium weight and round with good mineral depth and some spice and lemons coming through. Great acidity to finish it off, making it really well balanced.
|
100% Tinta del Pais Dark and aromatic fruit on the nose. Exceptionally pure fruit is the main character of this wine, strawberry and a touch of black cherry. A little spice and great balancing acidity.
