'A three way joint-venture which includes Reenen Borman of Boschkloof, this is my white wine discovery of 2015. Formerly sold off to the local co-op, this Montagu Chenin Blanc is a revelation. Saline, textured and oatmealy, with some skin tannins, wax and spice and perfectly judged oak. Drink: 2015-22' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2015, 94/100
'2014 single-vineyard chenin from Montagu has Old World styling, faint stonefruit, lemongrass & green olive notes, & very dry; earthy & mineral, moderate alcohol, perfect balance. Nothing overt, has quiet assurance. More a 'sense of being' than a wine.'- Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
