The nose reveals; lemon, lime, grapefruit, green melon, white peach, pineapple, white peach, cream, soft cut dry grass, granitic soils, flint, dry herbaceous notes, limestone, yellow and white flowers with greens.

The body is full and rich. Heavy presence of granite, steel minerals, chalk and white spice. It’s a hard mineral invasion into the palate. Lemon, lime, grapefruit, green melon, white peach, pineapple, white peach, cream, soft cut dry grass, flint, dry herbaceous notes, limestone, yellow and white flowers with greens. The acidity is lively and high. The finish starts fresh & fruity and then quickly dries and the minerality dominates.

Photos of, their beautiful restaurant terrace view, crazy beautiful indigenous flowers on the tables, my Ribeye entree and their terrace restaurant full on Family Day, a South African holiday that is always the Monday after Easter.
