Beyerskloof Pinotage (South Africa)

Saturday, April 21st, 2007


Tonights wine factoid comes to you courtesy of the Beyerskloof vineyard in South Africa. No Micky Mouse wine this one.

Holy Moley their bottle of Pinotage certainly hit the spot. With a flavor redolent of Blackberries on a Summers day, this wine was as smooth as a baby’s bottom.

Groovy.

Tempus Two Merlot

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

Another night’s filmic entertainment, Lethal Weapon on Blue Ray, another bottle of wine down the old hatch.

The nectar of the Gods to grace our palettes on this occasion, was the pewter label Tempus Two Merlot. A real corker !!!

Eaglevlei Merlot

Sunday, March 18th, 2007


At my brothers suggestion I gave Eaglevlei Merlot a try. Incredibly smooth with a taste of plums, strawberries and blackberries, it’s a classic in a glass. An experience akin to angels dancing on your tongue, angels wearing fruit flavoured velvet slippers that is.

Available exclusively at Sainsbury’s and currently reduced by £1.49 a bottle this is a must buy.
