Made from grapes grown on a single southwest-facing plot at 350m in Stellenbosch, planted with 35-year-old bush vines on slate soils. The grapes were harvested in early February, whole-bunch pressed and moved to 400L old French oak, where fermentation with ambient yeasts began. The wine was then aged on its lees for 10 months with regular batonnage. Greg Sherwood MW: An interestingly dusty, smoky nose with herbs, mineral and spice. A lot of tender, succulent yellow fruits and plenty of crystalline purity and precision. Very impressive. Beverley Blanning MW: Pungent floral scent and good intensity of rich baked apple fruit on the palate. Finishes with a mineral tang leaving a distinctly savoury impression. Roger Jones: Custard tart, white peaches, spices, caramel, flaky sweet pastry. Vanilla spice lingers, with layers of bright complexity. Finish has citrus freshness, too.
