Post House 2008 Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)

  1. $22
A gorgeous wine with so many layers and components that all work magically together to produce a harmonious and well-balanced Chenin Blanc. The bouquet has assertive herbal aromas of cloverfields and menthol supported by notes of baked pear lightly drizzled with butterscotch sauce. The palate is rich and intense, like toasted spicecake topped with grilled peaches…  — L.B.  (9/1/2010)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $23
Serious herbal notes of cedar bark, black pepper and violet leaf mingle with a juicy fruit backbone of black raspberry and cherry flavors. Rich and satiny in the mouth with a firm structure and a coffee-infused finish. Drink now–2013.  — L.B.  (6/1/2011)

Post House 2009 Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)

  1. $24
There’s a gorgeous toasty character to the red apple skin and almond aromas on the nose, while aggressive citrus and ripe apple flesh flavors take hold of the medium-weight mouth. The moderate acidity cuts through the generous palate, while a serious spicy aftertaste remains through the finish.  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

Post House 2007 Penny Black Red (Stellenbosch)

  1. $33
The high-tone fruit aromas work here, lifting the otherwise dark and heady notes of mulled berries, cherry pie filling, cured meat and sweet smoke. Balanced and ready to drink now with medium weight and dusty tannins. The finish shows nice evolution from fruit to earthy tobacco and finally coffee.  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

Post House 2008 Treskilling Yellow Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)

  1. $23
Though it might be a bit direct and simple, this dessert wine is delicious and satisfying with decadent flavors of juicy peach, sweet spice and ginger bread drizzled with honey. The alcohol shows a bit after swallow, but the spicy notes take hold on the close.  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

Post House 2007 Merlot (Stellenbosch)

  1. $24
The immediate impression you get is of strong menthol aromas, followed long after by supporting fruit flavors of blackberry and cherry. The minty sensation also carries through to the mouth, but a touch of fruitcake spice adds something different to the finish. Smooth and approachable now.  — L.B.  (3/1/2012)

Post House 2002 Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)

A wood-aged wine that has achieved some good balance. It is big and rich, almost like Chardonnay in weight, but it seems to have little of Chenin’s varietal character.  — R.V.  (11/15/2005)

Post House 2010 Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)

  1. $26
There’s an assertive oaky presence to this wine, with forward aromas and flavors of vanilla bean, honeyed peach and spiced guava. The round and mouthfilling texture complements the rich fruit flavors, and the finish is long and sweet-spice driven.  — L.B.  (7/1/2012)
