Rijk's Private Cellar 2003 Chenin Blanc (Tulbagh)

Price $35

Wood and Chenin Blanc can go together, if handled judiciously, as this fabulous wine shows. Nuts and almonds make classic mature Chenin Blanc aromas, while the dense ripe fruit flavors with a complex interplay between wood and fruit give this wine great depth.

Online Exclusive

This is cool climate Cabernet, ripe but relatively delicate, with just a herbaceous touch. The texture is dry, firm, with structured tannins. It leaves an aftertaste of aciditity. — R.V. (12/22/2011)
