Description
The Crepuscule Pinot Noir by Idun in Elgin shows a very light ruby colour with bricky tints to the rim. The delightful nose shows Brambles, rose petals, ripe cherries and strawberries. The palate is wonderfully fresh with red fruits and cherries that are delicate and integrated.
Idun is a small, boutique winery run by a French-Danish family originating from Mauritius. They produce excellent varietals which are well-balanced, concentrated, and elegant. These are mightily impressive, French-inspired wines which you would be paying a lot more for if the grapes were from France.

2018 Oupa Danie’s Swan Song, The Liberator Ep. 37, WO Calitzdrop
Muscat
The crushed grapes are left in contact with their skins for two days with the occasional pumping over and wild fermentation was allowed to start. The must was then fortified with 96% spirit to stop fermetation whilst the wine still had 250 grams of residual sugar. Heady, rich and concentrated with spice, stone fruits and amazingly long finish. Enjoy this fabulous wine with toffee or fruit based desserts, or stick some away for it to develop further.

2022 Vineyard Selection Cabernet Sauvignon, Klein Zalze
Cabernet Sauvignon
The Vineyard Selection Cabernet from Klein Zalze is one of those wines that is immediately appealing. This amiable red is made from grapes sourced from vines that are over 30 years old, giving an enticing red wine that is packed with classic blackcurrant fruit with eucalyptus notes mingling with cinnamon spice and gentle oak. Rich and concentrated yet by no means overpowering, this is a finely made wine and demonstrates the tremendous value to be found in South Africa.

2022 The Liberator Francophile Syrah, Stellenbosch
Syrah/Shiraz
The Liberator Francophile Syrah is a partial whole bunch ferment which gives a wine that is full of vibrant red-black fruit, with an aromatic nose reminiscent of Saint-Joseph lillie. The result is a thrilling young red that is free of the constraints and manipulated flavour profile that come with barrel-ageing. This is a very pure and naked example of the Syrah grape. Dangerously drinkable on release, it could be expected to age for three to five years in bottle.

2023 Sauvignon Blanc ‘Cabriole’, Idun Winery, WO Bot River
Sauvignon Blanc
The Cabriole Sauvignon Blanc from the Idun winery is an elegant yet expressive Sauvignon from the cool Bot River region of South Africa. Subtle tropical fruit is beautifully balanced with saline touches and minerality on both the nose and palate, which builds to show an impressive richness whilst never losing freshness and expertly poised acidity. This terroir driven wine nods more to the classic old world Sauvignon Blanc from Europe than it does the modern Kiwi style, but there is enough character to satisfy lovers of both styles - very impressive.
