About this Item

6 x 750ml bottles comprising two bottle of each of the following wines: Lismore Estate Reserve Syrah 2017, Lismore Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2017, Lismore Estate Reserve Viognier 2017

2017 Lismore Estate Reserve Chardonnay
This Reserve Chardonnay shows intense citrus, stone fruit, jasmine and walnut layered with honey and vanilla carried by a distinct minerality and crisp acidity with a lingering citrus finish.
95 points - Neal Martin
94 points - Tim Atkin

2017 Lismore Estate Reserve Syrah
An exotic experience which shifts your mind to another place. Cassis, brambles and succulent cherry. White pepper, classic garrigue and the strong floral perfume of crushed violets. Light and elegant, but structured with a fresh acidity. To experience the best this wine has to offer, decanting is suggested.
95 points & Wines of the Year “consistently one of the best South African expressions of the grape” – Tim Atkin
93+ points “spine tingling ” - Neal Martin

2017 Lismore Estate Reserve Viognier
Rich, lush and decadent. Honeysuckle, peaches and dried apricot with a lingering, saline and citrus finish. A clean fresh acidity supports the extravagance of the nose and the palate. Viognier is an aromatic and generous varietal, it benefits from barrel maturation and lees contact with a fuller mouth feel and increased texture. This, combined with the firm acid backbone and intense fruit, will allow this wine to integrate beautifully and gain further complexity over the next 3-5 years.
