Simonsig 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (Stellenbosch)
- Best Buy
- $15
This big boy greets us with his deep ruby/black cloak. Loaded with cassis from start to finish, there is tremendous fruit depth here and a full, supple mouthfeel. Reminiscent of one of the successful large-scale ‘97 California Cabernets. Has tannins to resolve, best held for a year or two.

Simonsig 2007 Kaapse Vonkel Brut Rosé Sparkling (Stellenbosch)
- $30
This delicious rosé is a combination of sweet strawberry and a touch of lemon crispness on the nose and the palate. Its light, elegant character is supported by a dancing acidity and a balance of ripe berry flavors and minerality. A great food pairing choice or stellar solo sip.

Simonsig 2000 Tiara Red (Stellenbosch)
- $30
This mature wine is the top Bordeaux blend from the Malan family estate. With rich, red plum and black jammy fruits, this wine does not hold its big, bold tastes back. But with great, spicy flavors and a layer of dry tannins that appears at the end, it will stand up to rich foods.

Simonsig 2000 Sauvignon Blanc (Stellenbosch)
- Best Buy
- $13
Just what Sauvignon Blanc should be. Fresh and clean with grassy and melon notes present throughout. Vibrant acidity, a smooth mouthfeel and a long finish complete this very lively wine. Would make a great aperitif.

Simonsig 2003 Redhill Pinotage (Stellenbosch)
- $30
Despite straightforward flavors of purple berry fruit and vanilla, this wine’s nose speaks volumes, with rich dark fruit and chocolate in addition to the plum and vanilla. Smooth and full in the mouth, with good balancing acidity, this wine will drink well over the next 5 years. Imported by Quintessential LLC.

Simonsig 2005 Redhill Pinotage (Stellenbosch)
- $30
Soft mint, spice, cocoa and smoke on the nose lead into like flavors on the palate, creating a smooth, integrated combination of elegant and structured components that are assertive but friendly. The finish is lingering and the wine has aging potential.

Simonsig 2011 Chenin Blanc (Stellenbosch)
- Best Buy
- $12
A nice and easy Chenin Blanc that’s also a terrific value, this white offers bright notes of ripe red apple flesh and lime rind followed by a touch of woody spice on the close. Medium weight with good cut and freshness; drink now.
