The Foundry 2003 Cape of Good Hope Syrah (Coastal Region)

Online Exclusive

Price $41

A full, chewy mouthfeel and dry tannins keep deep, pure plum flavors in check. A straightforward wine at first, time reveals aromas of bramble and a minty finish. With its strong fruit core and young tannins, this may turn into a beautiful wine as secondary flavors develop over the next 5 years. Imported by Cape Classics. — M.D. (9/1/2006)

The Foundry 2005 Cape of Good Hope Viognier (Coastal Region)

Price $20

Toasty vanilla meets peach, apricot, and honeysuckle in a classic Viognier nose. Round in the mouth, with moderate acidity, the melon and peach flavors are brushed aside by toasty, buttery oak. Give the oak another six months to a year, then try with potato gnocchi slathered in a rich alfredo sauce. Imported by Cape Classics. — M.D. (9/1/2006)
