Tasting notes
It's a bold, leesy, spicy, concentrated wine that shows a touch of oak, flavours of quince and tropical fruit, some grape tannins and a smoky flourish. Intriguing stuff, with good ageing potential.

Durbanville
Part of the recently designated Cape Town CBD, alongside Constantia, Hout Bay and Philadelphia, is Durbanville. The vineyards of Durbanville are situated mainly on rolling hill slopes and produce a wide variety of wine styles. Some of the vineyards grow at altitudes as high as 380m above sea level. Deep soils, cooling sea breezes, night-time mists and proximity to the ocean all impact viticulture in this area. Bordeaux blends, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Pinotage and Shiraz—all the classic Cape varieties—do well here.
