BLANKbottle "B.I.G. SA" Swartland Cabernet Blend 2020
91
Our Score
(9/2021) Pieter Walser's blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc is sourced from 11 vineyard sites, all of which are given a shout-out on the label. Fermentation and 18 months of aging in French oak barrel rounds off the tannins while providing lush weight. This wine delivers tantalizing dark fruit flavors with dashes of pepper, gravel and earthiness. Pieter's "biggest" wine, it flashes a new world size and style that should be very appealing for Cab lovers!

JC Wickens Wines "Swerwer" Swartland Red Blend 2018

Our Score
(8/2021). With every new bottling, winemaker Jasper Wickens seems to be willing South African wine into the international wine discussion. Truly, if we had blind tasted this wine, we would have been stumped. It brings to mind great wine regions such as Bierzo and Provence. Blended from a 90% fusion of Cinsault and Grenache - topped up with a smidge of the Portuguese native, Tinta Barocca. Showing raspberry, cranberry, black tea, with a distinct rocky earth backbone, the Swerwer is quite complex. Fresh and lively, the style is lighter than one might think, with good grip and acidity across the long finish. A truly unique wine coming from a unique region.

A.A. Badenhorst "The Curator" Swartland Red Blend 2019
When we first sampled this wine, after leaving it to aerate in our glass, we were SURE we'd been advanced in our flight to a good quality Crozes-Hermitage at nearly three times this price. Nope, this is just that good - and should be your go-to house red at this sizzling price!

Vinous, Neal Martin
(4/2021) "The 2019 Curator, a blend of Shiraz, Cinsault and Mourvedre matured in used barrels, has a lovely bouquet of mulberry, red plum, rooibos and light fennel aromas. The harmonious, expressive palate is medium-bodied with a dab of pepper on the entry, good weight and slightly tertiary red fruit toward the finish. This is a fine Red Blend with good persistence and plenty of personality. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2032."
