Critics Ratings
'[NEW] Debut 05, 'best Chenin I ever made', opines Teddy H. Opulent lemon blossom, honey & spice bouquet; equally alluring satin palate, touch tannin, interminable finish. TH's trademark sugar (6.8g/L) matched almost gram for gram by bracing acidity. An individual, strikingly packaged head-turner. Fermented/8 months 100% new French oak. Great prospects.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2007, 5*
