Robertson Winery 2006 Phanto Ridge Limited Release Pinotage (Robertson)
- $18
A soft, elegant nose evokes darker berries and spice on this subtle Pinotage. On the palate, pronounced spice and smoke is softened by luscious fruit and smooth tannins. A very pretty wine and an accessible version of a tough variety.

Robertson Winery 2003 Almond Grove Noble Late Harvest Riesling (Robertson)
- Editors' Choice
- $18
A very smooth Riesling, a handsome dessert wine with an aromatic and flavorful citrus-apricot profile. Fine, ripe fruit yields appealing richness without being overly sweet, supported by good acidity all the way. Needs only greater length to kick it up into the top echelon. Worth seeking out.

Robertson Winery 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (Robertson)
- Best Buy
- $10
A lovely nose of cassis and herbal notes, with hints of eucalyptus and chocolate, leads into a dark palate with plenty of tannin, cassis and tobacco leaf. Should be drunk now, but has enough grace to last for the next few years. A bargain at this price. Imported by Indigo Wine Group.

Robertson Winery 2002 Shiraz (Robertson)
- Best Buy
- $10
The sweet, easy-drinking flavors of cherry and plum are countered by pipe tobacco, with gentle layers of oak throughout and some eucalyptus on the finish. The acids lend a pleasant bite and are well offset by the tannins which have some grip.

Notes of cedar, paper and leather carry to the cassis laden palate, with meat juices and a hint of plum. Light in weight, with talcy tannins, this wine is straightforward and an easy drinking entertainer.
