Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Vibrant and juicy with flavors of black plum and cherry accented by notes of sweet spice. Balanced and lightly structured; drink now and pair with a stewed or braised meat or game dish.

DeWaal Pinotage - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Like the regular Pinotage, this leads with an aroma of bran flakes. Black plum, blackberry jam and caramel are soon to follow, with a cool, eucalyptus like char on the finish. Seems to have more finesse, but less weight than its compatriot.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An interesting note of bran flakes leads to blackberry, molasses, toast and sweet fresh herb aromas and flavors. This is clearly a wine that is all about the rich black fruit, which is accented by layers of oak, talcy tannins, and a char-washed finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Orange citrus dominates the medium-intense bouquet, but secondary aromas of green apple, melon rind, hard nectarine and a touch of honeysuckle appear upon deeper inhalation. Solidly structured with a vibrant mouth and an apple core flavored finish.

DeWaal Chenin Blanc - 2009

0 out of 0 people thought this note was helpful.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Opulent yet refined with notes of rich black raspberry, plum flesh and cocoa flooding the nose and mouth. A touch of tar and acidic notes appear in the bouquet, but they are nuanced and balanced by the richer fruit and oak flavors. The finish is long and chocolate infused, with the dusty tannins lingering throughout.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aromas of cigarbox, black fruit and spice are followed by blackberry, plum and pepper on the palate. Clean flavors, balanced tannins and minerality, and an overall easy-to-drink character recommend the blend. Pair with roasted meats, stews.

DeWaal Red Blend - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a fresh and easy to drink white that's perfect for pairing with salads or citrus-based grilled fish. Medium weight with prominent tart flavors of lemony citrus and green berries, and the finish offers a hint of fresh hay.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tasty and satisfying, especially for the price, with notes of plum flesh, strawberry and blueberry in the nose and mouth. Lean but so drinkable with soft mocha and pepper spice unfolding on the solid finish. Drink now.
