These
notes attempt to give some guidance to when best to drink
our wines. The wines tasted were from our own library collection
kept in an underground cellar. The conditions are good, but
not ideal with ambient temperature going up to 18°C in
the middle of the summer and down to 12°C in winter. This
probably mirrors the average collector, but those with differing
conditions should adjust accordingly.
Please note we also started to get considerably better quality and longer corks since the 1996 vintage. Many of the 1992 to 1995 vintages unfortunately vary a lot depending on the condition of the corks.
Please note that these notes should supersede the predictions
of the fact sheets, which are prepared shortly after bottling.
We will attempt to update these tasting notes every 2 years.
We would welcome any feedback.
The Wine
Cellar in Cape Town has kept a number of our wines in
ideal cellar conditions for resale. Visit
their site or contact them if you are interested in purchasing
any. |
