Kershaw "GPS" Klein River Syrah 2016
93
Vinous, Neal Martin
(11/2019) "The 2016 GPS Klein River Syrah is a new addition to the Kershaw range. It has a very perfumed bouquet of raspberry, crushed strawberry, fennel and sage; discreet touches of camphor emerge with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a fine bead of acidity, beautiful balance and a hint of spice toward the harmonious, persistent finish. Superb. Drinking Window: 2020 - 2035."

Vinous, Neal Martin
(10/2019) "The 2016 Clonal Selection Elgin Syrah is a blend of around eight parcels, all individually microvinified and matured with varying levels of new oak, from zero up to 70%. Limpid in the glass, it has a glorious, pure bouquet of red currant, raspberry and mulberry scents that are seductive and very Burgundian - think Vosne-Romanee! The palate is rounded on the entry, offering lively red berry fruit laced with white pepper, fennel and a subtle charcoal note. There is a slight grittiness toward the finish, which is well structured and persistent. This is both a delicious and an intellectual Syrah. Drinking window: 2020 - 2038."

Kershaw Elgin Syrah 2014
92
Wine Advocate
(4/28/2017) "The 2014 Clonal Selection Elgin Syrah has a refined bouquet that actually needed some coaxing from the glass, eventually offering boysenberry, bilberry and violet scents. The palate is well balanced with sappy red berry fruit, white pepper and hints of bacon fat towards the finish. There something animally and gamey about this Syrah, yet that merely enhances its complexity. This is a very fine Syrah that will give a decade's worth of drinking pleasure."

Tim Atkin
"Lukas van Loggerenberg is a kind and gentle giant who makes wines that combine elegance, precision and sheer pleasure. This delicious Cabernet Franc comes from three farms in the Polkadraai Hills and is a grassy, delicately articulated marvel. Violet and lead pencil aromas segue into a fresh, nuanced, subtly wooded palate. 2020-2028"

Van Loggerenberg "Graft" Western Cape Syrah 2018
91+
Our Score
(1/2020) A stunning Syrah from Vin Chicago favorite Van Loggerenberg. Whole-bunch fermented with natural yeast, the wine exhibits classic black fruit character with some dried herbs and a wisp of smoke. A stand-out from its typicity is a vibrant perfume of rose petals and dried violets that emerges as the wine evolves in the glass. Substantial in body with well-balanced acidity, this Syrah is representative of top-tier winemaking in South Africa and should drink well over the next decade.

Van Loggerenberg "Trust Your Gut" Western Cape Chenin Blanc 2018
93
Our Score
(10/2019) The idiosyncrasies of Lukas Van Loggerenberg and his wines make us swoon. The wines are defined by nuance and subtle complexity while underneath they hide a deeply moving soulfulness that leaves us contemplative, and smiling. His "Trust Your Gut" Chenin Blanc is sourced from hand tended grapes in Swartland, Paarl and Stellenbosch. Like the wines of another of our favorite producers, Hofgut Falkenstein, this dry white is entirely delicate, yet layered with delicious green apple, white pepper, herbal honey, minerality and high acidity. At the top level, South African Chenin is capable of great complexity, and we find it here. Drink now with hours of decanting, or allow it to develop over the next 5-10 years.

Stony Brook Vineyards "The Lyle" Coastal Region Sparkling Chardonnay 2013
Winemaker's Notes
"Fresh citrus on the nose, with a hint of brioche from the extended lees contact. Lovely balance between brightness and richness on the palate, followed by a long, dry finish, allowing this Cap Classique to be cellared for many years to come. A wonderful wine to accompany oysters or to be enjoyed on its own for that special celebration."

(6/25/2018) "Blackcurrants, dark plums, citrus peel and orange rind as well as nutmeg make for a very appealing nose. Full body, grippy and juicy tannins, a pretty line of acidity and a savory finish. Drink now or hold."

Callender Peak "Mountain Vineyards" Ceres Plateau Chardonnay 2017
92
Our Score
(1/2020) The harsh, rocky Ceres Plateau in South Africa's Western Cape is located 700m above sea level and one of the coldest sites in the country. Here, winemaker Donovan Rall is making deliciously pure Chardonnay from tiny yields in the Burgundian style. The Callender Peak Chardonnay is supple and juicy with aromas and flavors of lemon curd, peach cobbler, and lime rind with a solid mineral backbone on both the nose and palate. Whole bunch press, spontaneous fermentation, unfined and lightly filtered. South Africa is churning out incredible values for Chardonnay especially, and this one is exemplary.

Creation Walker Bay Pinot Noir 2017
89
Our Score
(4/2019) Soucred from the cool climate vineyards of Walker Bay, this solid Pinot Noir from Creation wines shows great balance and freshness. Clean red fruit flavors of cherry, strawberry and raspberry are concentrated and juicy. Subtle spice tones from 10 months oak aging, 25% in new barrel, add complexity. We secured the last few cases on close out and we're passing the savings along to you!
