This 100% Grenache from the Sadie Family exhibits its typical aromas of red cherries and pomegranate fruit, which extend into richer earthy notes on the palate. This vintage presents a slightly darker yet still brilliantly red colour, while the tannins offer a more gentle and approachable texture compared to previous years. The fruit character is notably expressive, and the softened tannins indicate that this vintage achieved full ripeness with its 13% ABV. Although tempting to enjoy now, the wine will develop substantial complexity when allowed to mature in the bottle.

Bursting with a bright, fresh nose with crunchy red fruit aromas, the 2022 Old Vine Series Soldaat displays impeccable balance and crystalline purity from a challenging vintage. Medium-bodied and with lively acidity and delicate mineral tension, the Grenache bursts with bright red fruit flavors, even though it spent less time on the skins and clocks in with some of the lowest alcohol for the bottling. Only 6,800 bottles were filled with 50% whole-cluster Grenache. Bravo, I want more!Anthony Mueller29th December 2023

The 2022 Soldaat is Eben Sadies' Grenache from the Citrusdal Mountains, 50% whole clusters with 20 to 28 days on the skins, raised in concrete. It has a captivating bouquet, very floral with pressed rose petals, kirsch, pomegranate and cranberry. The palate has a touch of sour cherry on the entry, very tensile and linear. Yet, there is also disarming purity and cohesion on the finish, very peppery on the sustained aftertaste. Wonderful. 13.18% alcoholNeal Martin2nd November 2023
