Natalie's Score: 91/100

From the Stellenbosch wine region, Warwick Estate Professor Black Pitch Black 2017 is a great value red wine blend; rich and bold with equal amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and a splash of Cinsault in this vintage. Look for ripe and juicy flavours of blackberry, red cherry, red berry, cinnamon and anise spice with judicious oak treatment (20% new). Lovely now, but can easily cellar for five years.

Food pairings: grilled bavette and skirt steaks, venison burgers, game sausage cassoulet.
