Post House Blueish Black 2007



Take one sip and there is no mistaking that Blueish Black could only come from South Africa. The sense of terroir that South African wines impart is unmistakable and often dominating. With Post House, owner and winemaker Nick Gebers allows his wine to express the rustic smoky qualities of the soil without overpowering the deep plum and cherry flavors. The 2007 blend is made up of 38% Shiraz which gives this wine it’s depth of fruit. South Africa’s signature hybrid grape varietal Pinotage is next in the mix at 28% giving smoke and leather. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot round out the mix offering structure and length. This a wine that offers a degree of complexity at a reasonable price.


Bill Martin

Fine Wine Manager, Luke's Super Liquor Stores of Hyannis, MA

After graduating from the University of Maine, Bill took a summer job at a package store on Martha's Vineyard. His enthusiasm for wine began with red and white Burgundies, and soon grew to include Rhones and Bordeaux's, the Riojas of Spain, and California Zinfandels. Like many of us he fell in love with the world of wine. Bill remained on Martha's Vineyard for the next decade, tasting, reading and writing about wines. He turned the old-fashioned package store into a thoughtfully selected boutique wine shop. In 2005, Bill decided to move to the Cape, bringing his love of wine and expertise to Luke's.
