Winshaw Vineyards, maiden releases
From R 240 per bottle

Brothers JP and Pierre Winshaw have released a new set of wines under the Winshaw Vineyards label inspired by their great-grandfather, Dr William Charles Winshaw, and their grandfather, Bill Winshaw. Both the 2017 Bill Winshaw and Charles Winshaw scored 93 points in the recent Platter's Awards – an impressive feat for maiden releases. They have also released a 2019 Malbec which up until now was blended into the two other wines.

Michel Bouzereau, Bourgogne Côte d'Or & Meursault Les Grands Charrons 2019
From R 580 per bottle

A newcomer to our cellars, Michel Bouzereau is an exceptional Meursault property producing thrilling wines. From their 11-hectare estate, Jean-Baptiste has hit the sweet spot between tension and flamboyance characterised by their wines. The Bourgogne Côte d'Or 2019 is sophisticated and vibrant, offering great value, while the Meursault Les Grands Charrons 2019 is imprinted with the nuances of its terroir – it is opulent yet maintains a taut and persistent energy.

Luddite, Saboteur White Crown Cap 2020
R 175 per bottle

Niels and Penny Verburg's 2020 Luddite Saboteur White is a hit! Always a Chenin-based blend with Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier, the 2020 was partially fermented on skins and is fuller and richer than previous vintages. It is a complex, layered wine with nutty flavours, spice and stone fruit and, while serious and well-structured, it is very refreshing.

Mullineux, Granite & Iron Syrah 2019 Magnums
R 2,350 per bottle

We're pleased to offer you two magnums of the Mullineuxs' Single Terroir Syrahs. The double 97-point Granite Syrah 2019 is bright and vibrant displaying 'remarkable grip and persistence, with energetic acidity and a savoury, satisfying finish,' writes Tim Atkin MW. The 2019 Iron Syrah has lovely Northern Rhône brawn and black olive complexity. Tim Atkin calls it 'the broadest, richest and most structured of the three Mullineux soil Syrahs.' Store these magnums for future enjoyment.

Southern Right, Sauvignon Blanc 2021
R 150 per bottle

The Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc is a wonderful food wine, providing excellent value at R150. Rather than delivering pungent varietal fruit, this wine is known for its minerality, texture, length and complexity. Anthony Hamilton Russell praised the 2021 vintage, stating that the Sauvignon Blanc performed fantastically. The 2021 has notes of white pear, freshly cut green apple, and lemon verbena – all of which follow on to the palate.
