T'Voetpad White Blend 2021
Haven’t seen this in OZ but Sadie Family have been producing some terrific wines including Semillon and Chenin blends. I had a Kokerboom (Semillon) recently and highly recommend.
Probably one of the best South African producers - both white and red.

@David White South African wines are generally hard to come by in Australia for some reason. I agree regarding Sadie wines. Their Columella (Syrah) I had a few years ago was excellent.
@David White and @Bob McDonald yes I have had a few of their wines , and have been very impressed , great purity and precision … I actually shared a bottle of their Cinsault ‘ Pofadder’ with an Aussie friend of mine recently who bought it in a very good and diverse wine shop in Taipei … very difficult to find it in Sydney apparently

Columella Liberatus Castro Bonae Spei Shiraz Blend 2012
Big nose but not big body. Very tasty but not worth the 100+ price. Really nice but not good value. 80/20 Syrah/ mouvedre. — 3 months ago

Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022
Pale ruby in color; candied cherries, dried herbs, and raspberries on the nose; medium minus acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes like hibiscus, cloves, and dried leaves with a long finish. Nellie, Leo, and Bri don't like it. I like it. — 7 months ago

Medium straw colour . Quite reserved on the nose , cool green apple , slightly chalky , mineral notes . On the palate this is quite saline and mineral focused , with high acidity , bone dry , green fruits , slightly creamy texture . Good length. This can age really quite well and is pretty young at the moment , would be inclined to leave another 3-4 years and will drink well a further 5-10 . — 10 days ago
