Beginning with a lighter and lifted nose, this wine offers Pinot Noire-like aromas with hints of potpourri and red spice before ripe, dusty cherry skin flows out of the glass with a kiss of green herbs. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers a just-ripe fruit quality with flavours of tart cherries and wild strawberries and fine mineral tension. The wine has a balanced structure yet concludes with a slightly tannic and drying finish.
The 2018 Old Vine Series Pofadder begins with a lighter floral expression with tart red fruits, with a tightly knit firm rocky core. On the palate, the wine is tightly structured with rigidity and rusticity, showing a serious wine, with flavors of cranberry and cherries skin that grip the tongue. Medium-bodied and with bright acidity, the red-fruited finish lingers long with taut mineral tension. For a lighter wine, it is cellar-worthy and incredibly food-friendly.

Eben Sadie is considered one of the great preservationists and visionaries in the new generation of South African winemakers. To Eben, the vineyard and fruit are part of the story—the truest expression of his art and philosophy. The wine writer Neal Martin recently called Sadie an “outspoken, peripatetic, terroir-obsessed winemaker who has been instrumental in putting Swartland on the map. He produces a small portfolio of comparatively expensive, but highly coveted wines based on Rhone varieties sourced from his seemingly never-ending search for pockets of old bush vines and unique terroirs. These are cerebral wines built to age.”
