Reyneke
The Reyneke label was created in 1998 when Johan Reyneke Jr. took over the farming activities from his mother and produced the first wines on the family farm, Uitzicht. The 40ha farm faces the historic town of Stellenbosch and overlooks the surrounding mountain ranges and the beautiful False Bay. Since inception, Johan has moved from farming conventionally to farming organically and finally to farming and producing his wines in accordance with biodynamic principles. He is currently one of only a few winemakers in SA who produce biodynamic wines and is considered somewhat of a ground- breaker in this regard. The aim for Reyneke has always been to express the uniqueness of the farm's situation – the deep soil dotted with early stone age hand axes; the vines- some 40 years old; the crisp upland air – into the bottle. Reyneke believes that it is impossible to sense terroir if you are constantly changing it with chemicals. "The intention here is to interfere as little as possible, to allow nature to be the real maker of the wine and to truly produce terroir specific wines of the highest quality."

This sports a strong, mouthwatering tobacco note backed by dark fig, espresso, bittersweet cocoa and pepper. Long, grippy finish lets a tarry edge hang on. A touch rustic in the end, but has character. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2015. 75 cases made. more

This has nice underlying richness, with paraffin and pound cake notes, but stays racy, with pink grapefruit, straw, verbena and honeysuckle notes stretching through the long, well-focused finish. Delicious. Drink now through 2013. 1,250 cases made. more
