    June 27, 2022 - Kunne lett passert som en hvit Bdx til dobbel pris. Fint vindu nå.

    September 9, 2020 - Chenin and semillon take the edge off the sauvignon nicely but leaves it a tad sweet

    July 7, 2020 - Like a white Bordeaux with slightly riper fruit. Quite nice mouthfeel. Mainly Sauvignon Blanc on the palate - grassy herby, quite pungent, lemon grass. Touch of complexity and a short finish. Acidity high.
    Mix of: Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Chenin

    March 22, 2020 - Clear and light greenish yellow. Layered and fresh nose with green apple skins, hay, a bit toasty, creamy and citrus rind. Medium plus acidity (6.5/10) with a medium body. Fresh and crisp on the palate with minerality, some brininess, citrus rind and tree fruits. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2027.

    Bordeaux styled blend made up of 54% Sauvignon Blanc, 28% Semillon and 18% Chenin Blanc. All the fruit is sourced from vineyards in the Western Cape (Kaaimansgat, Villiersdorp and Piekenierskloof). Goes through 100% malolatic fermentation and aged in 2nd hand oak for around a year prior to bottling.
