Crazy how this has aged. Smelled totally like rhubarb, especially the green part of it. Also some gooseberry and grass, typical, but the rhubarb was the great bit. Still fresh, still definitely a bit flinty. Loved it.

Tasted at Vivat Bacchus in London. Terrific SB, likely best I have tasted from SA. Salinity mixed with a bit of stone fruit and grass on the nose. Really nice balance between the minerals and the fruit. Comes together with a very long finish. Outstanding!

By the glass by the BA lounge. Last glass in the bottle. Very much a full on grassy feel, light asparagus at times and soft citrus. Soft, light on acidit and texture, new world for sure and relatively simple. 87 but a good 87

very good, tasty minerals and soft sauvignon blanc notes paired with lemon fruit.
Perfect with fish...
One of my favourite whites from South Africa
