Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This wine is simple but pleasant, with flavors and aromas of ripe white fruit with a touch of vanilla. Plump, despite being light-medium bodied, this is good for keeping cool in the summer.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Not completely clean, with some sulfury notes that linger annoyingly throughout. Aside from that, there's some decent plum and black cherry fruit and a soft, easy finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A bit on the candied side, but easy enough to drink, with black cherry and graham cracker notes that seem sweet and simple on the midpalate, then turn dry on the finish. Imported by Vincor USA.

Kumala Cabernet Sauvignon - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
South Africa has emerged as a top source for bargain-priced wines, but remains a bit of a minefield, as many of the less expensive wines continue to exhibit various winemaking faults. Not so this wine, part of the Vincor portfolio. This plump, easy-to-drink Chardonnay boasts oodles of tropical and citrus fruit flavors that finish clean and fresh. It’s in the uncomplicated fruit-cocktail style popularized by mass market Australian brands, but remarkably well done. Imported by Vincor USA.
