Tasted by: Tim Atkin MW, John Hoskins MW, Greg Sherwood MW
(at Decanter's April 2017 issue South African Chardonnay over £7.99 Tasting, 30 Nov 2016)
Drinking Window: 2017 - 2020
Dusty, chalky aromatic nose. Hints of pepper stalky spice. Picked early - and lacks the intensity a longer ripening period might have offered. Cool, lean and taut - very much an aromatic, old world interpretation.
