About this Item
Arrow Heart Semillon 2014
2 (1 x 2) 750ml
Sourced from the single La Colline vineyard, planted in 1936 roughly 350m above sea level on a southern slope in the Franschhoek valley. Skin fermented Semillon Gris, with one quarter whole bunch pressed Semillon blanc. An inter-planted expression of dark- and light skinned Semillon vines that is now virtually extinct outside of Cape old vines, and so affords a chance to taste something uniquely South African.

Critics Ratings
'A first outing for this assemblage of Semillon Gris and Blanc from the La Colline vineyard. It's a restrained, backward wine that needs time to unfurl its flavours. Six days on skins have given the wine texture and grape skin notes, complemented by toasty oak and pure, focused, citrus and lemongrass notes. Drink: 2015-21' - Tim Atkin, SA Wine Report 2015, 94/100
