October 31, 2023 - Phil's impromptu tasting fun (Phil's place, Putney, Sydney): From Coravin. A little almond meal joins orange and lemon, touch of sweet spice, creamy notes, slightly animal underpin. Juicy, rich, mouthwatering acidity but not sour, generous citrus fruit shows a little orange as well as the lemon, lng, integrated grip, nice. Non intrusive alcohol warmth on the finish.
April 30, 2023 - Cheninesque with with aromas of green apples, peach, lemon, lime, camphor and slight pear. Well-balanced, though a smidge high in alcohol, but I know the next vintage is 0,6% lower.
Impressive quality of fruit from my fav ZA winemaker.
March 18, 2023 - Really expressive nose of green apple with some stone minerals , similar palate which is fresh, vibrant and decadent persistence
February 27, 2023 - Un très beau chenin avec un bel équilibre qui se laisse boire en jeune âge pendant que l'on attend les carthology. Le nez et la bouche sont dans les fruits blancs.
February 12, 2023 - Whether it be young vines or old vines Chenin Blanc, the Alheits do it great justice...
On nose : the purity of green pear, light florals and and a ghost of warm stone.
On palate: all above flavour notes amplified, in addition to herbal notes of tarragon , lemon zest displayed on bright acidity within a medium body of great balance.
Can expand and age well....a good foil for roast chicken , basmati rice and green beans tonight.
December 16, 2022 - Very nice and fresh nose. Intense pear aroma, with honey notes.
Complex, fresh and balanced mouthfeel, not that overwhelming acidity one could expect from Chenin Blanc. I like it very much.
September 11, 2022 - Dine out (Almyriki restaurant): The wine is fresh, fruity, straightforward, a touch mineral, white berries, citrus, melon, grapefruit fruit, lime, lemon peel, peach, green apple . There is high acidity, its bright and youthful, very fresh, medium body, smooth long finish
May 31, 2022 - Delicious. Delicate nose of citrus, quince and ripe pear. Fresh citrus and minerality on the palate. A lovely precise freshness and balance about this wine.
May 23, 2022 - Beautiful sweetness and acidity, ripe white fruits, beautiful wine.
May 22, 2022 - Cape Cru South Africa Tasting (Zuiderkerk, Amsterdam): From their newly planted vineyard, young bushvines in Swartland. Super expressive, great acidity, great
