Umkhulu 2001 Tian Red (Stellenbosch)
- $20
Smoke, toast and red fruit flavors come together gracefully in this approachable Bordeaux blend. There are plenty of aromas and flavors to contemplate—think roasted lamb and black fruit—but overall the wine is one you can feel comfortable savoring with a big bowl of stew or a plate of cheese. The price is right, too.

Umkhulu 2004 Dry White (Stellenbosch)
A wine with a fine, nutty complexity over ripe fruit, with a touch of toast and a full, buttery flavor. This is developing well, but could age another 18 months. Imported by South Atlantic.

Umkhulu 2001 Akira Red (Stellenbosch)
- $16
Cabernet and Pinotage give this a hearty edge, but balanced oak and vanilla flavors soften the punch. Add to the toast a mélange of blackberry, plum and currant flavors and the result is a classic wine with character.

Umkhulu 2003 Shiraz (Stellenbosch)
- $25
The nose on this Shiraz is deep and opulent in character, wafting of mulberry, vanilla and oak, and the flavors are rich and integrated. The tannins are firm but the wine is elegant and enjoyable. An approachable Shiraz that will pair well with everything from grilled ribs to pizza.
