Tasting Notes

Yellow-fruit aromas integrate seamlessly with notes of crushed stones, honey and thyme. It’s medium-bodied, mineral and full of tension. Racy and tightly wound in terms of structure, but full of flavor. From vines planted in 1978 in the Helderberg region of Stellenbosch. Drink or hold

Honey and honeysuckle fill the glass before its halfway to my lips. And then it arrives and the wine is a collage of haptic flavours: a pepper-stippled swirl of creaminess; the sting and swash of grapefruit and citron; the fissure of apricot stone and the suck of apricot flesh. Crunch and crackle of acidity and something green that seems to snap the finish in half leaving you reaching for the next sip. Drink: 2025-2031
