For around R185 you can get a bottle of the superb Boekenhoutskloof "Chocolate Block" 2007
It's unlike anything you've drunk before.

Hey sitting here in the pav. What would u recommend for good redwine bottle? Max R200

Is "pav" short for pavement?
You can get about 40 litres of wine for R200.

The 2003?

You're probably drinking the younger ones. Although I still enjoy them as an easy drinking wine, but they really mature with a few years under their belt. Nice wine IMO. I drink a bottle of shiraz only once every now and then. I don't find shiraz to be an easy drinking wine, and for us alcoholics, that can be a problem...

I wouldn't know I am trying to cut down alcohol to as little as possible.

I know virtually nothing about wine. Platter's Guide is a bit too detailed for me. A few years ago, there was a guide to the cheaper wines written in an easy to understand style. Is it still around? What is it called?

 

[Necuno]

well allot cheaper and still good...

...is the Casillero del Diablo Range; Carmenere 2005 Chile was nice
