Rich, but stylish, delivering velvety fig, raspberry and blackberry fruit flavors that glide over incense, black tea and ganache notes. The long, suave finish lets a tobacco note stretch out. Drink now through 2011. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 500 cases imported.??–JM??Region: South Africa / Western Cape / Coastal Region / Constantia Select to Add

Cassis, black pepper and smoked meat start this stylish Shiraz from the venerable estate. A beautiful balance of savory black fruit and spice layers on the palate, followed by a lingering, vanilla spice finish. Ageable and elegant. ——S.K.(6/1/2010)—— 89
