   Hey Gary,

   I haven’t tried many South African wines but I’ll probably pick up the 2 you recommended and try them out.

   Nothing else by Boekenhoutskloof? Especially after raving about the $7 Wolftrap?

   Gary, I’m disappointed. I’ve personally gotten their Chocolate Block in NJ, albeit not from you guys. I’m glad you reviewed new terroir, but I’m disappointed that you missed the chance to see other, higher-end, offerings from the maker of one of the best value wines ever on WLTV.

   Top 13!

   Looking forward to South African wines. I was there for work last fall, and had an opportunity to try a bunch of different wines, with the exchange rate being a huge help. It was awesome. The John X Merriman has been nice in the past – hopefully it lives up!
