As our resident SA enthusiast are you going to share some gems for us to go look for then?

OK, here's six

I wanted the Kanonkop 2007 Pinotage -- on offer it is £2 cheaper than the Wine Soc and on par with the cellar dorr price.

I also got the Klein Constancia Vin De Constance -- we won't see that price again.

The Boekenhoutskloof new red 'Le Cap Maritime Shiraz 08 is worth a punt

Groot Constantia SB 09 also, 4.5 Platter stars.
Bellingham's 'Bernard Series' old vine Chenin 08 -- this is the well regarded 'Maverick' renamed

There's also the Reserve version of the Vergelegen SB

new name De Morgenzon is beingtalked up; Chenin masters are behind the label and Majestic has the 08 Chenin, though Platter thinks 08 was half a star down from the 07 'brawnier' but worth a punt.

Talking of going to Majestic, it's their press tasting on Friday. I have an advanced copy of the tasting sheet if anyone wants to request tastings. Email me.
