Description
The Kloovenburg Grenache Noir has aromas of dark cherries, pomegranate and dried herbs. The palate is medium-bodied, shows good structure and fruit purity. Pairs well with leaner meats dishes like lamb, venison and turkey.
All grapes are handpicked during the early morning hours and then cooled overnight in a temperature-controlled room at 5 °C. 70% of these grapes are then crushed and destemmed, whilst the remaining 30% are whole bunch fermented using natural yeasts. Extraction is obtained by light punch downs twice a day. Following fermentation, the wine is left on the skins for another seven days and then pressed to old oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation is completed in the barrel. The wine is then racked from the lees and given a low dose of sulphur. The wine spends a total of 10 months in the barrel before it is bottled, unfined and unfiltered.

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.

2019 ‘The Mutt’ Cabernet Sauvignon, Hoopes Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon
The aromas are rich and inviting with juicy blackberry, violet, and anise lending layered complexity. The mid-palate is full and plummy with a touch of toasted oak. This structured yet smooth wine finishes with hints of cola and vanilla.

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!

2011 Chateau Bellegrave, AC Pomerol
Bordeaux Blend
The 2011 vintage had a hard act to follow coming after two exceptional years in Bordeaux and whilst the wines aren't as showy as the '09's and '10's they are charming and drinking beautifully with a decade in bottle.
