Landskroon 1999 Cape Vintage Port (Paarl)
- $20
This squat-bottled offering shows a rich and dense stewed fruit, dried plum and raisin platform. The fruit’s up front, with attractive nut and smoke accents showing as this opens up in the glass. Even in feel, not overly dense or heavy, and accessible now.

Landskroon 2011 Dry Chenin Blanc (Paarl)
- Best Buy
- $11
A brisk and lifted Chenin that should pair well with summer salads, grilled flake fish or chicken. Peony and orange blossom notes grace the background of the bouquet, while white peach, lemon and yellow apple flesh flavors fill the medium-weight palate. Balanced and refreshing; enjoy now.

Landskroon 2000 Cabernet Sauvignon (Paarl)
- $16
A satisfying nose of red plum, anise, melon rind and red licorice whet the palate, where the full plum and anise flavors are accompanied by dry toast. A shot of bitter herbs are sensed at the backpalate and on the medium length finish.

Landskroon 2003 Jerepico Morio Muskat (Paarl)
- $15
Bright, focused classic orange-apricot Muscat aromas and flavors shine in this fortified wine from Paarl. Though light in feel, it shows a little heat—no surprise with its 18% alcohol. Refreshing very cold from the nose right through the tangy citrus-spice close.

Landskroon 2000 Merlot (Paarl)
- $16
Nose offers loam, button mushroom, dry leather and rhubarb aromas. The palate is slimmer, with light fruit and leather that carries over to the lightly toasted finish. Simple and straightforward, but good. —K.F.

Landskroon 2002 Shiraz (Paarl)
- $16
Even and medium weight, with sweet berry-plum fruit, plus nice oak. The wine is not terrifically complex, but is handsomely balanced. All components are in harmony—including a modest dose of South African earthiness, closing with smooth, dry tannins.

Landskroon 2011 Bush Camp The Sundowner Chenin Blanc (Paarl)
- Best Buy
- $11
An off-dry Chenin, with lush notes of peach, red apple and sweet lime. There are soft hints of sweet grass and spice that unfold on the bouquet and on the finish. Vibrant acidity keeps the flavors fresh and leaves a lingering tingling sensation. An easy choice for drinking now.

Landskroon 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon (Paarl)
- $15
Light but quite tasty with red berry, black plum, herb and licorice aromas and flavors. An even mouthfeel and mild, smooth tannins complete the profile in this very drinkable, claret-like wine.
