March 8, 2024 - I enjoyed this but over-priced given it was a mystery at $30. Would have been happy at $20.

December 24, 2023 - Rich, elegant and opulent Chardonnay. Lovely balance, slight toasty buttery notes but the fruit is in control.

March 3, 2023 - I think there's a really impressive wine in here in what was a very good vintage for Chardonnay in Stellenbosch. I don't think we're there yet. 89 now potentiially 91 in a couple of years.

October 6, 2022 - Very good bottle of South African wine but not necessarily the best value out there in the market.

July 23, 2022 - Chardonnay blind at Goldhill. Drank in Gabriel Standart and Grassl Cru.
Appearance is clear, pale intensity, lemon colour. Legs.
Nose is clean, medium+ intensity, with aromas of cool citrus lemon, light toast, hint of white flowers, flint stones minerality. Developing.
On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium alcohol (13.5%), medium body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of fragrant orange blossoms, salted nut, cool citrus lemon, underlying stony minerality. Green apple and salty + sweet elements with more air. Long minerally finish.
Very good quality. Really quite Puligny-like to me. Like a good Puligny village.
