Delaire Graff The Banghoek in Geschenkverpackung

Master of Wine Tim Atkin hat in seinem 2020 South African Report den Delaire Graff The Banghoek 2017 auf die Liste der Weine des Jahres gesetzt. Stolze 96 Punkte vergibt der international renommierte Weinkritiker für den südafrikanischen Rotwein, der auf allen Ebenen herausragt.

Das Bouquet dieses Blends aus Stellenbosch duftet intensiv nach Veilchen, dazu kommen wunderbar tragende, unterschwellige Noten von würzigem Eichenholz und Zeder. Fruchtige Noten von roten und schwarzen Früchten (Kirschen, Pflaumen) runden den Duftstrauß ab.

Am Gaumen ist der Delaire Graff The Banghoek 2017 herrlich facettenreich. „Die meisterhafte Tanninstruktur des 2017ers unterstützt eine komplexe Vielfalt von hochwertigen schwarzen und roten Früchten“, urteilt Cathy van Zyl in John Platter’s Wine Guide. Sie vergibt 92 Punkte für diesen Cape Bordeaux-Blend aus der Icon Range von Delaire Graff, der nur in limitierter Auflage kreiert wird. Die Tannine sind wunderbar integriert, das Finale ist delikat-würzig. Der Rotwein hallt noch sehr lange nach.

Für die Kreation aus 53% Cabernet Franc, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot und 3% Malbec betreibt das Team um Winemaker Morné Vrey enormen Aufwand. Die Trauben werden in den frühen Morgenstunden geerntet und die Lese erfolgt mit größter Akribie, sodass nur das allerbeste Lesegut die Grundlage für diesen herausragenden Rotwein aus Südafrika bietet. Der Delaire Graff The Banghoek 2017 reifte dann für 16 Monate in französischen Eichenfässern, wobei zu 60 Prozent neue Fässer zum Einsatz kamen.

Beyerskloof Diesel Pinotage
‘Diesel Pinotage’ is certainly an unusual name for a wine. However, it is easily explained once you know the history behind it. ‘Diesel’ was the name of the dog of Beyer Truters, the owner of the Beyerskloof estate. The dog was his beloved, loyal and constant companion. Diesel was always at his side, whether in the vineyards, in the cellar or in his office, so it was only logical that Beyers Truters named his best wine after his ‘best’ friend.The grapes for the Beyerskloof Diesel Pinotage come from bush vines that are cultivated without wire trellis training systems. In South Africa, the bush vine method is often used specifically for Pinotage. The fermentation took place in open barrels for 5 days at an average temperature of 78.8° F, while the must was pressed down every 2 hours. Subsequently, the malolactic fermentation was carried out in stainless steel tanks. Afterwards, the wine matured for 21 months in new French oak casks. Only 20 out of a total of 300 filled barrels were chosen to produce the Diesel Pinotage.The Beyerskloof Diesel Pinotage is a deep purple in the glass. Its bouquet is characterised by complex aromas of blackberries and dark fruit, complemented by elegant notes of cedar wood. On the palate, the wine shows a fine but complex structure of black and red fruit. This Pinotage is truly a superb wine, captivating with its outstanding balance between fruit and wood. This wine has an outstanding ageing potential and it is expected to be a genuine delight over the next 10 years or even longer.It is an ideal accompaniment to spicy Indian cuisine or a well-matured rump steak. The Beyerskloof Diesel Pinotage is arguably one of the best Pinotage wines from the Cape.
