Critics Ratings
'Rocking Horse is a cuvée of grapes and areas, combining Roussanne, Semillon, Chardonnay, Clairette Blanche and Chenin Blanc from four different regions. Showing John Seccombe's skills as a blender, it's leesy, herbal and seamlessly balanced with spice, pear and oatmeal flavours and racy, stony acidity.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2019, 96/100
