Bonne Nouvelle 2003 Stellenbosch South Africa
46% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 19% Pinotage
“… An impressively perfumed wine …”
Deep colour with orangey highlights, suggesting a wine developing as expected.
The nose is very straightforward with notes of cigar box, cedar, figs and dates. The overall impression is rich and complex.
Unctuous, full-bodied and powerful. Highly concentrated on the palate, culminating in a long finish.
Slightly developed. Best enjoyed within the next five years.
That being said, this wine is almost 20 years old and has aged incredibly well!
