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 - 2019
Honeyed and waxy, this is quite evolved for a 2015. It may have been picked early to retain its acidity, and this adds a herbal tea element.
