點擊次數：5363

A very bold, tropical style, with lots of ginger and graham cracker leading the way for dried pineapple, candied orange peel and mango fruit notes. There's also a liberally toasty finish, with a bitter almond edge adding some cut. Not shy at all. Will certainly have some fans. Drink now. 30 cases imported.??–JM??Region: South Africa / Western Cape / Coastal Region / Paarl Select to Add

If big, ripe, oaky Chards are your thing, then this is one that’s certainly worth searching out. Rich and full with a round, creamy mouth, the wine offers full-blown flavors of pineapple, guava, orange creamsicle and banana cream pie all abound, followed by a nutty, sweet spice-flavored finish. Thankfully, there’s enough acid to keep things balanced and prevent the wine from being too heavy or flabby.——L.B.(3/1/2012)—— 90
