Excelsior Wines with Peter de Wet/ Amy Halloran/ Major Brands

Excelsior Chardonnay 2009 good expression of fruit. a little bit of a bitter ending but overall pleasant

Excelsior Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 a touch of sulfur on the nose, but bright red fruit on the palate.. really good color and good finish... in the store soon...

Excelsior Shiraz 2007... the winner of this group.. nose of a rhone red.. good acidity and a touch of pepper.. again nice extraction of color..

a value based wine from South Africa.
