Critics Ratings
'Partially barrel-fermented and spending 48 months on its lees, this cuvée of Chardonnay with 40% Pinot Noir is a thing of wonder. Creamy, toasty and nutty, with hints of umami and wild mushroom, very fine bubbles and lingering, satisfying palate length. 2018-26' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 95/100
'Ups the chardonnay component in 2014 sparkling to 70% (vs 60% in 2013 (92 pts)) to excellent effect, giving rich apple pie flavours & tangy oyster juice nuance. Pinot noir portion, 60% old oak, 42 months on lees add weight & length, balanced by lively acidity & persistent bubbles.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2019, 4.5* (93/100)
