Like a top white Chateaunueuf. Aromatically pure and clean with a rolling textural undertow. Sadie is a legend.

Blockbuster! Incredible array of fruits and herbal undertones. Coats your mouth with flavour and then finishes extremely clean, pulling you back in for another glass. Great stuff

Still waiting for spring to come, need some sunshine so I opened some South African love - Sequillo 8 from Eben Sadie in Coastal Region, Swartland - 41 barrels produced - harmony of Chenin Blanc 60%, Grenache Blanc 20%, Viognier 10%, Roussanne 10% - I definitely have to take a trip there #winelover

Straw yellow. Honey, Crenshaw, golden plum aromas. Barrel ferment/aging influences the body and leads the tropical flavors.
