Critics Ratings
‘One of two new wines in John Seccombe’s range, this bone dry Chenin comes from a 1976 bush vine vineyard on the Paardeberg. There’s a slight bitterness from drought stress here, but the underlying flavours marry flavours of patisserie with green apple. 2019-23’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 91/100
