'Stony, complexly gorgeous aromas and flavours on 2017 Paarl Chenin. There's intense but subtle fruit, expressed in dried peach, herbs, fennel; a touch saline and a good grip from a brilliantly exciting acidity and even a tannic element. Should develop many years in bottle. Matured in old oak.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2019, 4.5* (94/100)
'Yields were tiny here in 2018, with only 880 bottles produced from this two-hectare site. Planted in 1960 on what is a high-altitude site for Paarl, it's a taut, laser-like Chenin Blanc with incredible focus and precision, oatmeal and citrus fruit, a hint of oak and a saline finish. 2020-28.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 95/100
'Quite a deep honeyed character. Edgy and taut - really on an exciting tightrope of lime and honey ricocheting around the palate with a dry chalky finish. With such delicacy and well-judged acidity, plus fruit. Sophisticated dry wine from obviously well-scouted ingredients. What a talent! Long and so thrilling on the finish. The word tang was made for this wine. Such an impact on the palate.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 18/20 (May 2020)
