Our cool-climate, alchemy-free unwooded white wine celebrates the virtues of vivacity, elegance, and finesse. Most importantly, it is primarily an expression – an interpretation – of the free-draining Table Mountain Sandstone soils on which the vines are planted. In a sense the Sauvignon Blanc grape is merely the chosen vehicle to express these soils. Our Sauvignon Blanc is therefore a vin de terroir (wine of the soil). Seamlessly incorporating the very best that the Old and New World styles have to offer, favouring salinity, brininess and minerality ahead of pure, pungent fruit, it is a wine of substantial poise, length, and charm.

I like this Reserva from RdD. 100% Tempranillo aged for 24 months in oak barrels.
3.8 stars with more aging potential.
A deep ruby red and purple shades. Thick long legs in the glass.
On the nose medium intense aromas of blackberries, black cherries, black raspberries, horse saddle, leather and slightly oak.

This amazing powerhouse from Ribera del Duero. Tinto Pesquera Reserva 2012 - Bodegas Alejandro Fernández. Decanting is advised 👌🍷 delicious cherry, vanilla, leather and cederbox with cigars. Milk chocolat, forrest floor, laurel. Great lenght and depth Amazing wine!

90 pts Given the quality of the Crianza I really was delighted to find this Reserva, needs way more time to fully flower however, still very enjoyable for me now. The Crianza is ready now, but this shows sleeping intensity and great future potential and longevity, wait a few years however.
Typical earthy red fruit with good use of oak, dusty vanilla. Weighty, full with a long finish, it will be a star in the future.
