Critics Ratings

'A step up in terms of concentration and complexity - as you'd expect from a Reserve bottling - this stylish Chenin Blanc was naturally fermented in 50% new wood and is subtle, leesy and layered, showing pear and cinnamon flavours and stony intensity. 2020-25'- Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 92/100

'With a classic expression, the 2015 Chenin Blanc Reserve shows a purity of fruit, expressing pineapple and peach aromas, balanced with a floral essence. The palate leads to a structured and focused experience, with balanced oak tones and fruit and citrus flavors that burst forward with texture, that elevates the long lingering finish. This is a great wine and embodies what good quality Chenin Blanc should reflect. Just under 2,000 bottles were filled from wine that spent 14 months in 50% new French and Hungarian oak barrels, before being racked and bottled.'- Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, 90/100 (Oct 2019)
