De Grendel Shiraz 2013, Wo Coastal Region, Durbanville
Coastal Region, South Africa$20.75
(2) or 3....might have given one to Gerrits?
2020+2022
2020?
Oct 2022.....absolutely lovely. Smooth, rich, flavourful, no edges at all. A wonderful SA wine, and it doesn't remind you of a SA wine, could have been from anywhere.

2019+2021+2023 (Last one 2023-2025, maybe with Bryce&Brenda).....per MG drink 2021-2028
A naturally spicy, ripe finish confirms its excellence; drink 2018–2026. (WE)
Oct 2020...nice wine for sure, didn't wow me the way I hoped it might.....give it another 2 years (late 2022). Had with leftover roasted chicken.
March 2021....guess I should have read my previous note before deciding on drinking....in any case I am enjoying this bottle, had with Mediterranean Chicken, yummy. Last one minimum 2023!
January 2024...had with Norah, paired with jerk chicken. Enjoyed it once again.

Jan 2022....really good, smooth and delicious. Didn't feel the bite of 15.5% while drinking but did after was done (and only had one glass!). Highly drinkable as I had it with pizza and chicken nuggets, no problem. Will have with beef chilli tomorrow, should be perfect. Nice find. (92)

April, 2020.....really good, full bodied and delicous. Had with eggplant pasta. Could of kept drinking it but had to display some discipline. Should have bought more than two....well worth the $29. Save last one to share with someone. G&A would be good candidates.

Cant recall when I drank this wine, but do recall that it was decent and wasn't disappointed with its purchase.
