Hamilton Russell Pinot Noir

Hamilton Russell Chardonnay

Synchronicity Stellenbosch Region

            Notes:  Synchronicity is the flagship wine of Martin Meinert and is a pinotage/merlot/cabernet sauvignon blend. The 2005 vintage is more robust than previous ones and should become a classic. Deep and densely coloured. Ripe black cherry, plummy, mulberry whiffs with hints of cigar and cedar. A big, rich wine that despite its power retains a fine and elegant core. It is unashamedly aimed at collectors and those seeking wines with character. Should age well until 2020
