"The 2022 Wanderer's Heart is a Rhône blend from Olifantsberg and Gabrielskloof, made with partial whole clusters and matured in large format used barrels. This is quite closed at first, a little reductive, unfolding with dark berry fruit, briar, and a touch of Provençal herbs. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied and slightly peppery with pliant tannins, cohesive with a slightly introverted but engaging finish. This is an old-school Rhône blend that will unfold over the coming years." -Neal Martin

"The 2022 Wanderer's Heart Cape Red is composed of 45% Syrah, 33% Grenache Noir, 13% Carignan and 9% Mourvèdre and made with almost all whole-cluster grapes. The style of this bottling has evolved to showcase more Syrah and a greater use of whole-cluster fermentation, which is true in this vintage. The wine exhibits bright floral notes and maintains the same mineral tension with fine-grained tannins. The wine is spicy and has a bright, food-friendly, lingering finish." -Anthony Mueller
