Similar to previous bottle, just a notch better. Acidity a bit more in check, a bit rounder, in general just a bit better balanced, while still providing lots of nice fruit and refreshing acidity. Great deal at this pp.

Very nice for what it is. Subtle nose, just a little bit of tropical fruit. Refreshing acidity, some lychee and green apples on the palate. An easy and enjoyable drinker, but ultimately a bit one-dimensional.

Christmas Tweet Up for Elgin Wines (2015) (Elgin, South Africa): (Tasted Blind): A light lemon-coloured wine with a slight petillant note. Ester-driven aromas of peardrops, snow pea, cut grass, lemon zest, and apple. A fresh bright entry with crunchy apple acidity the highlights prominent apple, grass, and lemon towards grapefruit flavours that is leaning towards the lighter style that is focussed, delineated and enjoyable. Finishes short to medium with a hint of celery salt. 96 Semillon 4 Semillon. Portion 2%? Is barrel fermented.

Druvtypiskt och mycket bra. Doften lite, lite återhållen, men smak bra

Frizzy, fruity, high acidity, pears, thyme, spicier than expected, medium+ length, somewhat unbalanced however.
