Middelvlei 1995 Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)
- $17
This medium-weight Cabernet displays plum, slightly candied cherry and a little smoke on the nose and palate. Well-balanced with good persistence, this is an easy, pleasing glass of red that’s ready to drink now.

Middelvlei 1998 Red (Stellenbosch)
- $16
A jammy and meaty nose with dark currant, plum, and leather accents opens this straight-ahead, pleasing wine. Dark berry flavors fill the mouth and the tart-sweet fruit works well with the modest wood. Displays judicious use of the differing attributes of the blended grapes and oak.

Middelvlei 1996 Pinotage (Stellenbosch)
- $17
This light offering shows berry-cherry fruit and an herb note on the nose. The palate is even and dry with bing-cherry flavors, but an evident greenness keeps the wine from blossoming fully. Finishes dry, with a mildly astringent and slightly woody note.

Middelvlei 1996 Syrah (Stellenbosch)
- $17
Brine, pine and camphor on the nose obscures what black fruit lies beneath. Odd chestnut, acorn and shoe polish notes on the thin palate lead into a salty, corned beef-meets-menthol finish.
