Critics Ratings
''Pioneer & still benchmark in increasingly populous white blends category. 08 our White Wine of the Yr, & a blending masterclass: 8 varieties (inc palomino, clairette) melded into intricate textured sensation, rich stone fruit tingling with minerality. Stunning successor to 07. 70% older oak, rest concrete 'eggs'. - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2010, 5*
'A blend of several white varities, 30% fermented in concrete eggs, 70% in old 500 litre barrels. Deep yellow colour. Lovely fresh, intense nutty and lemony notes with some herbiness. Quite complex. A beautiful white wine with lovely freshness, intensity and complexity.' Jamie Goode, 94/100
