Vibrant, tart aromas of green gooseberries and lime rind elevate the underlying hay and fresh thyme herbal accents. Lean, barely ripe white peach and hard pear add volume to the medium-weight mouth. Balanced and seamless with a clean, refreshing finish. Drink up!  — L.B.  (11/1/2010)

This wine has an enticing nose of toast and vanilla spice that can’t quite hide tropical fruit aromas. The palate backs that up with good body and great acidity, more tropical fruit and plenty of vanilla spice. Ends with a nice citrusy tang. Imported by Cape Wine Ventures.  — M.D.  (3/1/2006)

Clean, fresh flavors, good body and a balance of fruit and acid make this both approachable and food friendly. It’s a straightforward wine but has a pretty, delicate overall character that sets it apart from other more aggressive Sauvignon Blancs.  — S.K.  (3/1/2008)

Here’s a solid and accessible Shiraz with medium- intense notes of red cherry, raspberry and cola on the nose and mouth. The mouth is medium weight with delicate tannins and black pepper spice, while the finish offers a glimmer of mocha.  — L.B.  (12/31/2010)

This light-bodied white starts with a nose of tropical fruit and citrus, leading in to flavors of creamy pineapple and fruit lifted by a crisp acidity. The wine has a lively character with a peppery spin. Pair with grilled seafood, fresh oysters.  — S.K.  (9/1/2009)

This Shiraz has a plucky nose of tart cherry, tobacco and pepper. The flavors of clove, tobacco and berry on the palate are fruity but balanced by the spice. Pair with cheeses, lamb.  — S.K.  (6/1/2009)

Douglas Green 2003 Shiraz (Western Cape)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
This wine starts off with nice aromas of cedar and spice, but the palate entry is dull, and spiking acidity plays an off note. Flavors of dark red berry just can't seem to bring it together.  — M.D.  (5/1/2006)
