A delicious example of dry Chenin Blanc. With currant aromas, and a full, fruity palate, this is big, rich and concentrated, with flavors of pears, white currants and a touch of mint to give it a lift. From the same winery as the Black Rock range, this is a fine wine. Imported by Vinnovative Imports.

Restrained and stately, this impressive Chenin Blanc is also complex and full of flavor. Though there’s weight and round layers of flavor on the palate, the minerality gives the wine a delicate, ephemeral touch that is truly elegant.

Pretty, balanced and elegant, this wine offers varietally correct aromas and flavors of citrus, melon and apple, all buoyed by a crisp minerality that offers lift. Also true to the style, there’s a round sweetness here that gives the wine an opulent edge. Pair with a chicken salad or seafood.

An opaque garnet color in the glass, this is a deep and brooding Pinotage that shows great intensity and concentration. Heady black fruit, espresso grinds, woody spice and black tea all abound on the nose and mouth, and a glimmer of peppery game lingers on the end. Big and firm with strong tannins and a tight finish.

This wine starts with a curvy nose of pineapple, apricot and melon, leading into a very pretty interplay of tropical melon and spice on the palate. Elegant with a cheerful overall character, this Chenin balances acid and fruit well, creating a rounded wine with a delicate edge. Overall, dependable and fun.
