About this Item
Lismore was struck a severe blow in December last year when a runaway veld fire destroyed Sam's family home, the wine cellar (and most of the wine stock) as well as a large portion of the vineyards.
All the proceeds of the Lismore lots on sale will go to the producer, in aid of rebuilding efforts - no buyers or sellers commission charged.

Critics Ratings
'A successful modern style that is lees-rich yet refreshingly mineral. Beeswax and acacia tones alongside wet chalk and river stone characters blended with cool-climate limey acidity. Drink: 2017-21' - Decanter 2017, 92/100
'Lismore really can claim uniqueness of terroir. How does this manifest in the wines? In the case of the Chardonnay, I think it's a particular richness and concentration of fruit. The 2014, which was matured for 11 months in older barrels of various sizes, shows a hint of reduction before citrus, peach and a little spice. The palate has good depth of flavour and nicely coated acidity - a substantial offering.' Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za 2016, 91/100
