Lovely evening out with an old friend from Bordeaux. Dinner started at @foxfinewines with a couple of delish bottles over a superb dinner followed by another sexy bottle of @luca_barbaresco Bianco at Black Book Soho. @moorooducestate @meerlustwine The ultimate unicorn 🦄 Chenin Blanc from @chrisalheit … the Radio Lazarus. Last made commercially in 2017, in this new edition of “From the Fine Wine Safari Cellar” I taste the maiden 2012 vs the final release 2017. Free to read on the #finewinesafari #cheninblanc @cheninblancsa @wosa_za #alheitvineyards Top White Burgundy isn’t cheap these days but boy it does hit the spot when it’s as good as this 2020 Domaine Latour-Giraud Meursault Charmes 1er Cru. @musignywine @vinsdebourgogne #finewinesafari Really great and informative to taste some exciting new blend components for Meerlust Chardonnay 2025 and Meerlust Rubicon 2025. Cellar Master Wim Truter has brought such electricity, precision and renewed excitement to the @meerlustwine range. Dream lunch at London’s hot new opening @kudurestaurant when Rubicon 2023 is matched with prime ribeye steaks! 🥩 🍷 Write-up free to read on the #finewinesafari @meerlustwine_estate @mmd_uk @mmdusa @stellenboschcabernet @stellwineroute Exciting new field blend 2023 white from @josvanwyk_wines … definitely worth seeking out. Full review on the #finewinesafari #swellendam #fieldblend www.gregsherwoodmw.com Do South African White wines age? Well, this @anthony_hamilton_russell Chardonnay 2013 from my cellar was on fire 🔥 Check out my review on the #finewinesafari @hemelenaardewines www.gregsherwoodmw.com New kid on the block… #vanblommesteinwines release a fantastic new Colombar 2025 made from 42 year old Breedekloof old vine fruit. #finewinesafari @wosa_za @naudewines New ratings and reviews for some delicious South African wines tasted at the @liberty_wines Portfolio Tasting in January. Highlights from @thorneanddaughters @mullineuxwines @crystallumwines @momento_wines #finewinesafari Free to read at: www.gregsherwoodmw.com @wosa_za Possibly one of the best value single varietal Cabernet Sauvignon’s produced in South Africa. Benchmark typicity and varietal character. Catch it in an iconic vintage like 2021 and it shoots the lights out. The newly released 2022 is text book quality again and a worthy follow up to the 96/100 point 2021. Full rating and review now live on the #finewinesafari at www.gregsherwoodmw.com #cabernetsauvignon🍷 #kingdomofcabernet @starkconde @museumwines @stellenboschcabernet @stellwineroute
