Pure and expressive flavors of cherry and raspberry highlight this enticing, harmonious red, which is elegant yet well-structured, with dense tannins lining the finish. Though tight in the end, this reveals layers of mineral and savory elements, plus plenty of ripe fruit. Best from 2029 through 2047.

Bramble and licorice snap notes lend good energy as a mix of boysenberry and blackberry puree and warmed fruitcake emerges steadily. A singed apple wood detail frames the finish, while underlying succulence lends freshness to help everything extend nicely. Best from 2038 through 2050.

The nose exhibits bright citrus notes of lime that repeat on the palate, where zesty lemon meets subtle herbal flavors and baking spices. With time, the wine unfolds, revealing a touch of ripe pears.

A classic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot from Stellenbosch that captivates with its balanced and tasty character. Aromas of ripe berries and oak spices introduce a firm palate. Hints of dates and a dash of freshly grated nutmeg complement earthy ripe dark fruit flavors. Excellent acidity and a silky texture lead the senses through a long finish.

The 2023 Othello is a tasty entry-level bottling from the front blocks on the property, those on either side of Hopper Creek. Juicy dark red fruit, cinnamon, new leather and cedar are pushed forward in this delicious, effortless Cabernet Sauvignon. Best of all, this should be a fabulous value, too.
