Edgebaston 2008 GS Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)

  • Cellar Selection
  1. $60
Top 100 Cellar Selections 2011
Hearty and complex, this beautifully intense yet balanced Cab is begging for some time in the cellar. Strong aromas of cassis, forrest berries, licorice, clove and bittersweet chocolate flood the nose, while flavors of black plum, leather hide, roasted cocoa nibs and cigar box spice unfold in the lush mouth and transition through to the long finish. With everything…  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

Edgebaston 2008 Finlayson Family Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc (Stellenbosch)

  • Best Buy
  1. $15
An alluring, aromatic nose of apple, grapefruit and pineapple leads into creamy but crisp flavors of tropical fruit and citrus on the palate. Lively but complex, the wine offers a delicate minerality and food-friendly balance. Elegant and delicate, but big enough to handle more complex dishes.  — S.K.  (3/1/2010)

Edgebaston 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)

  1. $30
Baked plum and black berry aromas mesh with a meaty character on the nose, while black pepper and crushed carnation petals add depth to the black fruit-dominant palate. It takes a while for the wine to fully open up, but once it comes out of its shell the silky texture and rich fruit character shines magnificently.  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

  1. $15
An interesting blend of equal parts Syrah and Mourvèdre wiith 8% Tannat, The Pepper Pot offers concentrated aromas and flavors of dark forest berries and fleshy black plums. A hint of leather and game unfolds on the finish, while medium acidity keeps the flavors fresh on the palate.  — L.B.  (5/1/2012)

Edgebaston 2009 The Berry Box Red (Stellenbosch)

  1. $15
The Berry Box is a fitting name for this wine, with its intense core of bright black berry, mulberry, raspberry and wild strawberry infused with notes of licorice root and peppery spice. The mouth is ripe and full but not overpowering with fine-grain tannins and a medium length finish.  — L.B.  (11/1/2011)

Edgebaston 2007 Finlayson Family Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)

  1. $23
Herbs, pepper, cedar and smoked sausage on the nose and palate give this Cabernet a rustic, inviting character. Flavors are delivered in a mouthfilling, layered way on the tongue, with lots of spice and cedar in the finish. Good minerality and balance mean it’s not overpowering for food.  — S.K.  (6/1/2010)

Edgebaston 2009 Chardonnay (Stellenbosch)

  1. $18
The fourth vintage of this wine is a winner thanks to its superb balance and evolution in the mouth. It starts off somewhat light and dainty with hints of clover, ginger and ripe pear, but then transitions to a rich palate offering flavors of wood-grilled red apple, cinnamon and orange rind. Drink now.  — L.B.  (8/1/2011)

Edgebaston 2010 The Honey Pot White (Stellenbosch)

  1. $15
This blend of 38% Sauvignon Blanc, 44% Sémillon and 13% Viognier is ripe but balanced with brisk acidity and lively citrus flavors against the tropical fruit and melon backbone. Prickly grapefruit flavors dominate the mouthwatering finish. Drink now.  — L.B.  (8/1/2011)
