Voluptuous and elegant but still true to the rustic nature of Pinotage, this is a true expression of South African terroir. Sweet black currant, licorice and cool-climate-derived mint mingled with smoke and spice create dimension and depth. The finish is firm and a touch edgy—again, a Pinotage characteristic. 1 Note

Some feline essence aromas appear on the nose with supporting notes of tart gooseberry and wet, dewey grass. Citrus dominates the creamy mouth with accents of cantaloupe leading through to the long finish. Try with hearty chicken salads or whole grilled fish. 1 Note

Enticing aromas of tropical fruit, toast and canned peas herald fresh pineapple, lime and herb flavors. Good acids and a little heat spice up the herby finish. Not a deep wine, but still a good value. —K.F. 1 Note

Burnt match and other sulfuric smells dominate, although the wine has nice melon and white stone fruit flavors. A bit tart throughout, with a finish that borders on harsh. Imported by Brown-Forman Corp. 1 Note

Lean, grassy, with ample tangy herb and lime elements from start to even finish. The slight note of CP (that’s cat pee) in the bouquet is right in line with the angular, crisp neo-New Zealand style. 1 Note

Lively spice and minerals lead on the nose of this value white, with a play of fresh lemon citrus and acid offering refreshing character. The wine has body but is light. Perfect for seafood and solo sipping. 1 Note

Green plum skins, bitter lime pith, hay and pepper all dominate the nose with barely a hint of ripe fruit to be found. The mouth, however, offers a bit more ripeness to the lime and plum flavors, fleshing out the medium-weight mouth and adding depth to the wine. 1 Note
