Diamond River 2005 Shiraz (Olifants River)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
A zippy, spicy nose offering minerality, earthiness and red berries starts this pert Zinfandel. The wine offers balanced tannins, fruit and a fresh acidity. Friendly and fun.

Gôiya 2004 Chardonnay-Sauvignon (Olifants River)
- Best Buy
- $7
This 50-50 blend is dominated by the Sauvignon Blanc, but tamed by the Chardonnay. Smoky and flinty on the nose, with mineral and fresh herb flavors, and a citrusy finish. It’s light in weight, without a lot of intensity, but what did you expect for $7? Imported by Hemingway and Hale.

General Bilimoria 2003 Olifants River White (Olifants River)
- $8
This Colombard-Chardonnay blend has a chewing gum-like quality. Might work with South Asian cuisine or as a quaff for casual circumstances. But the cheap-perfume notes are hard to get past.

General Bilimoria 2003 Olifants River Red (Olifants River)
- $8
Dry and failry thin, with a tart edge. The Pinotage fruit must be potent since it seems to outweigh the predominant (76%) Shiraz here. Sour on the finish.
