The fine wine thread

Decanted our very last Uitkyk Carlonet...

My journey through the vineyard, goes something like this,
If there is one thing I know for sure is that wine brings out your personality and identity whether it's sweet, dry, refreshing or bold. It affords you the opportunity to explore, experiment and try new things or be consistent with that one thing.
Once you find your sweet spot nothing else will move you and also to never forget to reward yourself and keep that one bottle that takes you to the finishing line. Because the truth is people don't just drink for fun or to relax but also you can be productive and creative with a bottle of wine.

Hey Guys can we all keep our peepers open for great Black Friday wine deals and share them here. Sure we can all build a nice collection of good value fine wine winners together. Lekker
 
BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL

Okay a good one here. This could be AMAZING.
R600 a case and current vintage selling at R200 a bottle. So 50% off. And normally a great tipple and quality farm. 2 years in oak
You don't see this tier of wine at these prices. Just hope all still good as its from 2016 vintage. But claims of 8-10 year life on their current 2025 vintage.

Do yourself a favour here! Their NEILS COLOMBARD and their CHENIN NUMBER 5 are serious hitters for whites. Like serious hitters. Sublime and compete with wines four times the price.
Yes, living close by we know them well. Those 2 along with their Sauv Blanc make up the bulk of our everyday whites. We find their Rhino Run organic red blend as a nice easy drinking everyday red if you are looking for bang for your buck (not exactly "fine wine", but quite a few steps above "fine, it's wine" :)
