April 2015

with well-integrated tannins

(91-93)/2013+

Ethereal and old-school

There is good richness and volume to the punchy but not especially elegant flavors that terminate in a lingering finish where a hint of bitter cherry pit character slowly emerges

Sadie Family, Pofadder Size:6x750ml April 2015The 2023 Pofadder, 100% Cinsault planted in schist, has a floral bouquet, white flowers, rose petals, bright wild strawberry and cranberry, with a little more mineralit than the Soldaat. The palate is medium bodied with crunchy red fruit. Its perhaps the most tensile of any Pofadder Ive tasted, culminating in a linear finish with life affirming frisson. There is an effortless brilliance about this Pofaddereven better than last year's offering.
