Cabernet/Syrah. Sweet and a tad simple and angular. For me the Fenix is much more subtle with rounder mouthfeel. Drinking range: 2019 - 2024 Rating: 16 Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Oct 2017)

Ruby red colour. The nose shows flavours of red cherries, black pepper, chocolate powder and hints of liquorice and pencil shavings. The palate has a soft minerally entrance and is full bodied with lovely ripe fruit tannins in perfect harmony with oak nuances. The wine ends very fresh and savoury. Best drink by 2023.Winemaker's notes (Aug 2018)
Haskell Vineyards
The Haskell Vineyards estate is in the Helderberg, the revered Stellenbosch sub-region which contains many of South Africa's greatest wine names, the 23 hectares of vineyards neighbouring Rust en Vrede, Stellenzicht and Bilton.
The estate was originally names Dombeya after a wild native pear tree that gows in the area, and this is the name used for the 'Dombeya' range, which is designed to represent great value at its price point and to offer an insight into the capacity of the estate to make stylish wines of individuality.The founding winemaker, Rianie Strydom, has now handed over the baton to Rudolph Steenkamp, who joined the estate as assistant winemaker and vineyard manager in June 2018. Rudolph has worked for four vintages at Groot Constantia, as well as in France.Awarded an elite five star rating in the upcoming 2010 John Platter Guide, Haskell also made history by becoming the first South African winery to win Best Red Wine and Best Wine in Show at the prestigious 2009 Tri-Nations Challenge, a yearly competition between the finest wines of Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
