Throughly enjoyable. The oak isn't over blown on this. The acidity is still present while the mouthfeel is creamy.

World's first white pinnotage. Very good. Oily. Looong finish.

Buttery, but nice. A Napa white meets South Africa.

Reminds me of a somewhat buttery Chardonnay, but it's definitely different--has more of a gamey edge to it.
