Tasting Notes

The 2025 Rotsbank, a Chenin Blanc on weathered granite that was bought by Sadie in 2021, has an exquisite bouquet with yellow plum, beeswax, pithy pear and light candle wax scents. It gains more and more intensity in the glass. The palate is taut and fresh with a fine bead of acidity, lightly spiced with ginger and orange rind. Again, it is the texture that is enthralling, and it feels extraordinarily long on the finish. 2028 - 2052
