Waxy texture, touch astringent on finish. Maybe needs a year to settle? Expecting more complexity.

Steely wet wool, crisp green apple, citrus blossoms on the nose. Thick round waxy mouthfeel. Green apple, ripe pear, lemons, lime, Christmas spices, almonds peaches and a touch of clove on finish. Big acidity.

Sep 22nd, 2016Quite rich, with loads of ripe citrus and tropical notes, though tons of fresh acidity coming from Chenin Blanc. Incredibly well done and an excellent example of what is coming out of South Africa. The elegance and minerality could have you thinking Burgundy. So good

May 23rd, 2016This is a mixture of old vines Chenin Blanc 66%, Clairette Blanche 18% Grenache Blanc 5%, Viognier 4%, Semillon 4%, Verdelho 3% with wonderful golden colour reflecting the lemon, melon and citrus flavours. 14% abv but well integrated and good long acidity on the finish
A top notch SA wine old vines classic
