KWV ROODEBERGINC VAT
The name KWV will be familiar to many of us, and the Roodeberg brand
is generally regarded as the flagship. It is a blend of varietals,
mainly
Cabernet Sauvignon, but the aim is consistency from year to year. Brought
back to my attention recently by my accountant, it is highly
recommended, although I charged him more than this!!

CURRABRIDGE RUBY CABERNET SANGIOVESE
Ruby Cabernet is a red wine grape created in 1936 in California by crossing
Cabernet Sauvignon with Carignan to produce a medium bodied, good coloured
cherry flavoured wine. Rarely on its own, it is here blended with Sangiovese
(the Chianti Grape) to give an easy-going, medium bodied red.

TERRE DEL SOLE MERLOT DELLE VENEZIE
Venezie or Venetia is a name used for the area of Northeast Italy, corresponding
approximately to the present-day Italian regions of Veneto & Friuli-Venezia
Giulia. This area has long used Merlot to produce simple, light "quaffers" as
the climate doesn't over-ripen the grape too much. I'm always surprised
by Italian Merlot, and this seems to do the job too! |

CALITERRA CHARDONNAY \ SAUVIGNON BLANC
This little baby is almost exactly a 50/50 split between the two grapes.
The Chilean climate makes the Sauvignon Blanc more delicate than the
popular New Zealand Sauvignons, and the Chardonnay is more fruity than
a Chablis but less than the Aussie "gloop" Enough from both
grapes to give a full-flavoured white with good variety. |
