    Weather Station Malbec Shiraz

    Vintage: 2018

    Ripe, juicy and smooth with flavours of blueberry, mocha and cinnamon spice.

    About this bottle: Malbec only arrived South Africa less than 100 years ago.

Winemaker Leon Esterhuizen has selected the juiciest examples and married them with a touch of oak to produce this vibrant purple wine.

    Pasqua Sangiovese di Puglia

    Vintage: 2015

    A smooth and fruity medium-bodied red with flavours of cherries, strawberries and blackberries.

    About this bottle: It’s certainly hot down in Puglia (the southern ‘heel’ of Italy), but with coastlines on three sides this small peninsula it is a haven for grapevines. Cooling sea breezes help the grapes ripen slowly to create ripe, but balanced, wines like this.
