Mike's Wine Picks

 

 

 

Lindile Ndzaba set out to make the kind of high-quality wine found in the city’s best wine bars available to his neighborhood of Khayelista. KFW brings together cultures in the most magnificent way, making wine in the scenic vines of Stellenbosch, South Africa and infusing a wine culture to underserved parts of the city in a locally-focused and community-oriented way.

Khayelitsha's Finest : Red Blend

Stellenbosch, South Africa

A stunning cherry red hue to the wine. There are tantalizing notes of cumin spice, dark cherries, smokey cloves, cayenne, and dark chocolate on the nose. The entry on the palate is smooth with a fine tannin and fruit-forward finish.

 

60% Syrah, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon

Khayelitsha's Finest : White Blend

Stellenbosch, South Africa

Normally $24.99

 ON SALE: $21.99!

 

This wine delivers stone fruit notes of peach, pear, nectarine, and melon. Lovely citrus zest, honeycomb and biscotti add to the complexity of the nose. The tropical fruits follow through on the palate with a fresh and zest acidity, the mid-palate is rounded and the wine has a long lingering finish.
