May 9, 2022 - Reallly hitting its stride now and absolutely showing how well SA white wine can age. This choir boy turned into a stunningly sonorous tenor and still getting better. Ripe, balanced, fresh acidity, minerality. Lots of weight. Beautiful wine.

January 24, 2022 - Glossy yellow gold colour. The nose opens with stone fruits and orange barley, revealing a richer creamy vanilla oak character with a bit of time in the glass. Really powerful and intense on the palate with plenty of acidity to keep it all together. Slightly oily texture and a honeyed, rich oak character at the back of the palate. Yum. Via Coravin.
