Baobab 2001 Pinotage (Western Cape)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
Grilled meat, black plum, peppercorns and caramel aromas carry through to the palate. Fine tannins and peppery black fruit deliver pleasure. Best Buy. —K.F.  — K.F.  (4/1/2003)

Baobab 1998 Merlot (Western Cape)

  • Best Buy
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $10
Packs plenty of flavor for the price, with great heaps of berries and stone fruits, earth, mushroom, and sweet vanillins and spice. You can taste the sunny ripeness through the rich finish, but the wine is dry and balanced. This is a very good value.  — S.H.  (1/1/2002)

Baobab 2002 Merlot (Western Cape)

  • Best Buy
  1. $8
Nicely opposed berry, earth and smoke elements riff in this tasty overachiever. Bordeaux-like, with solid dry fruit, earth and herb accents. Shows good length and even a touch of elegance. Outperforms most value Merlots, regardless of origin.  — M.M.  (11/15/2004)

Baobab 2004 Merlot (Western Cape)

  • Best Buy
  1. $10
If more inexpensive Merlots were as good as this, maybe the category could regain some of its lost cachet. Plum, black currant and chocolate flavors pack enough punch to stand up to such boldly flavored foods as cheeseburgers, spare ribs and barbecued chicken. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers.  — J.C.  (11/15/2005)

Baobab 2002 Chardonnay (Western Cape)

  • Best Buy
  • Online Exclusive
  1. $8
Solidly middle of the road, New World Chard, a little sweet, a little oaky, and very ripe. Peaches, apples, pears all mingle together in the flavors. Simple and a little thin, but an easy sipper.  — S.H.  (1/1/2002)

Baobab 2004 Pinotage (Western Cape)

  1. $10
Massive cherry aromas erupt from the glass, and they swamp the palate, too, quite deliciously. The texture is less pleasing, and is rough and sharp. Imported by Global Vineyard Importers.  — M.D.  (3/1/2006)
