Critics Ratings
'Regal, understated stature of 2014 sauvignon-semillon barrel-fermented classic demands respect. Intricately structured, weaving spices, beeswax & subtle floral notes into creamy, lees-rich platform. Still taut - needs cellar time.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2016, 4.5*
'Very pale. Lively and smoky. Light cloves and oak. For the long term. Chalky.' - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 16++/20 (Sep 2015)
'The 2014 release of this outstanding Bordeaux blend is well up to its predecessors, confirming its status as one of the Cape's best whites. With grip, presence and a tannic edge that comes from the windiness of the site, it's sensitively oaked and multi-layered showing notes of sea salt, pear and gooseberry and intense minerality. Drink: 2015-20' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2015, 95/100
