Organza Blanco 2009

Provenance

The late David Brice was a respected wine connoisseur, collector and co-founder of Brice and Burnett – The Fine Wine Specialists (formerly Wine Cellar). His lifelong passion for wine from all corners of the world wine, and generosity, helped develop a culture of fine wine in South Africa and beyond. Always with value and authenticity in mind, the collection spans a wide range of styles from leading producers and diverse regions. The wines were professionally imported under refrigeration and carefully stored at Brice and Burnett (formerly Wine Cellar) thereafter. Many of the producers are not available in South Africa and provide an excellent buying opportunity.

For more detailed information on the lots, please feel free to contact Roland Peens (roland@briceandburnett.co.za). Roland spent many years sharing and enjoying these wines with David Brice and is happy to provide further insight into the collection.

Critics Ratings

“(55% viura, 24% malvasia and 21% garnacha blanca): Bright gold. Aromas of candied ginger, poached pear, licorice, lees and smoky oak. Sweet on entry, then taut and penetrating in the mid-palate, with very good definition to its orchard and citrus fruit flavors. There's a buttery, toasty nuance here that reminds me of Meursault. Finishes chewy and tactile, with zesty minerality and lingering spiciness.” - Josh Raynolds, Vinous, 91/100 (Nov 2011)
