Flagstone Writer’s Block Pinotage 2015

The 2015 Writer’s Block Pinotage, which comes from the Breedekloof W.O, has a very seductive, very floral bouquet with violets infusing the cassis and blueberry fruit. The palate is well balanced with smooth tannin, svelte and harmonious with a lush, caressing finish. This is as much about texture as flavor – a cashmere Pinotage that’s a bit of a femme fatale. Drink date: 2017-2030. Score – 92. (Neal Martin, robertparker.com, April 28, 2017)
