Critics Ratings
'Donovan Rall's white weighed in at its lowest ever alcohol level in 2016, purely because of the early date of the harvest. It's a stunning blend of Chenin Blanc with some Verdelho, Viognier and Chardonnay, with pear, peach and white flower notes, understated wood, racy acidity and a savoury undertone.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2017, 95/100
'Virtually all of this is Swartland except for a dollop of Stellenbosch fruit. Spicy nose on a broad, fruity, appealing palate. Just hits the spot in every way. There is ocean in there as well as fruit.' - Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Oct 2017)
