The Summer Collection Bottle size: 750ml
Mixed country, Mixed region
Le Lude, Brut Rosé NV
'Exhibiting the magic touch that’s shared by all of Paul Gerber’s bubblies, this cuvée of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and a splash of Pinot Meunier comes from four different regions of the Western Cape. Lightly wooded, it’s a stunning rosé with still Pinot Noir adding colour. Red cherry, strawberry and a savoury tang are supported by a fine, elegant mousse. 2017-21.' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 94/100
Pesquié Terrasses Ventoux Blanc 2021
‘The 2021 Ventoux Terrasses Blanc is a gorgeous, clean, up-front, and delicious white that's ideal for drinking over the coming summer months. Ripe lime, chalky mineral, mint, and some garrigue notes all define the nose, and it's pure and clean on the palate, with wonderful fruit.’ – Jeb Dunnuck, 91/100
Saurwein, Chi Riesling 2023
'Grapes from two sites in Elgin. Both nose and palate are currently entirely callow – pear and blossom with perhaps a touch of flinty reduction and green apple while the palate is overtly sweet. Lots of plump fruit, the acidity currently completely camouflaged. A residual sugar of 14.2g/l and total acidity of 7.9g/l gives rise to the thought that this wine will only show at its best in years to come but it appears unresolved for now.' – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za
Lievland, Liefkoos Rosé 2023
This vintage has not been rated yet, see 2022 tasting notes:
'Riaan Möller makes this stylishly packaged Stellenbosch rosé from an assemblage of Syrah and 47% Mourvèdre. Rosehip and watermelon aromas segue into a palate of pink grapefruit and wild strawberry and a tangy, bone-dry finish. Just the thing for a Cape summer day. 2023-24' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 92/100
Van Niekerk Vintners, Rebellie 2021
‘From Grenache, 60% Anysbos grapes and 40% from another Bot River property called Nabot. 40% whole-bunch fermentation before maturation lasting 10 months in older oak. More assertive in terms of both aroma and flavour than previous vintages and that much better for it. Red berries (cherry and currant) along with rose, fynbos and white pepper on the nose while the palate has pure fruit, zippy acidity and nicely grippy tannins. A vital wine with good structure. Alcohol: 13%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 93/100
GD Vajra, Langhe Nebbiolo 2021
'Seductive with over notes of dark, brooding fruit. The palate is full of ripe cherry, bell pepper and warm spice. Mouthwatering acidity with delicate, integrated tannins. Long on the finish. 2023 - 2030.' – Dirceu Vianna Junior MW, Decanter, 91/100
