Critics Ratings

'"As big as 2015, but more refined," is how John Seccombe describes the 2017 vintage of this five-way blend of Roussanne, Chenin, Semillon, Chardonnay and Clairette Blanche. Seamlessly complex, with tangerine, citrus and considerable underlying depth. 2019-25.' - Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2018, 96/100

'Tweaked each year: Roussanne, Chenin, Semillon, Chardonnay and Clairette in magical 2017. No primary fruitiness, but great aromatic and flavour depth and incipient complexity. More vinous and rich than other whites (13.7% alcohol), with a brilliantly poised acidity.' - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2019, 5* (96 pts)

'A seductive, medium-bodied white, with a corduroy texture, showing smoothness but also an intense salty streak and firm acidity. Lemon oil, yellow apple, thyme and vanilla flavors create an alluring mix, while minerally details impart lift and range. Roussanne, Chenin Blanc, Sémillon, Clairette Blanche and Chardonnay. Drink now through 2027.' - Wine Spectator, 92/100 (Oct 2019)
