A surprise for me, a stony bouquet, a hint of butter, white fruit, a good concentration, very present bitters and a balanced finish; 'good stuff with the potential to develop further.

Heritage vineyards planted 1983, 100% Bot River fruit, spontaneous fermentation and ageing in oak, bottled 16 November 2021, with 4,400 bottles produced. Expressive fruit character (peach, apricot, citrus), flowers and warm spices (cinnamon, vanilla), creamy texture, gentle bitters, yeasty complexity, chalky finish with salty minerality and a hint of warmth. Beautifully made but not really distinguished.

A really good wine, stony, a whiff of butter, dry, concentrated, ripe bitters, very well balanced en with a long aftertaste.

Beautifully fresh wine with honey and tropical fruits, pleasant acidity and bitterness and a good length.
