Description
The Andreas Syrah comes from a boutique winery between Paarl and Wellington. It is a wonderful example of the grape displaying lots of blackberry, blackcurrant and ripe dark fruits alongside hints of pepper and savoury leather. The palate is complex yet finely poised with well-integrated ripe dark fruits, herbal tinges and silky tannins.
The Syrah grapes are hand-picked in the early morning and brought to the cellar whilst still cool and fresh from the morning dew. They are then in the care of full-time winemaker, Shaun Meyeridricks, formerly of Boekenhoutskloof. The Andreas Syrah spends between 12 and 18 months in French barrels, before being allowed a further period of 24 months to mature in the bottle.

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire
Gamay
This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality. A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.

2020 Chateau Saransot-Dupre, Listrac Medoc, Magnum
Bordeaux Blend
Chateau Saransot-Dupre is a favourably sited 17 hectares property that lies between Fourcas Dupré and Fourcas Hosten in Listrac. Due to Listrac’s cooler temperatures, Merlot and Cabernet Franc are favoured over Cabernet Sauvignon to form the majority of the blend, helping them achieve optimum ripeness. Much like Chateau Fourcas Hosten, the wines have improved year on year since 2010 and the property were put on the radar thanks to a certain Robert Parker hailing the 2010 vintage as 'classed growth quality'. High praise indeed!

2022 Promis Ca Marcanda, Gaja, IGT Toscana
Merlot
The Ca Marcanda Promis is a complex wine with an undeniable elegance. The nose is rich and concentrated, with blueberry, liquorice and cocoa hints. It starts fresh and then develops balsamic notes and scents of graphite, before becoming more mellow in character with a rhubarb and menthol note. The palate is voluminous with fine-grained and silky tannins on the finish.
