Alluring, this is dark and concentrated but stylish, thanks to a strong graphite underpinning that carries the macerated cherry and currant fruit. Hints of grilled herb, tobacco and dark olive move throughout as well. There's a legitimate grip that's far chunkier than that of the 2006. Should settle in with moderate cellaring. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2011. 650 cases imported.??–JM??Region: South Africa / Western Cape / Coastal Region / Philadelphia Select to Add

Bright, saturated ruby-red. Musky aromas of cassis, black raspberry, minerals, dark chocolate, smoke and earth. At once penetrating and generous, with dark fruit and mineral flavors complicated by captivating soil tones. This really spreads out horizontally to dance on the palate on the subtle, long back end. A suave, complex wine with excellent verve and a light touch. This is approachable now but has the structure for a decade of bottle aging.
