About this Item
Rocking Horse is a cornerstone wine and takes its name from a wooden rocking horse that they made for their daughters out of old oak barrel staves. This is Thorne & Daughters signature wine and it is where all their work comes together to make their most complete wine.
Winemakers personal tasting note:
'The wine is composed from a number of carefully selected vineyard sites in the Western Cape. The aromas are of lime leaf, white peach, exotic woods, and sweet dried herbs. In the mouth, the wine starts broad and rich, resolving into a keen line of acidity supported by a gentle tannin with flavours of burnt sugar, orange flowers and rooibos leaf.' - John Seacombe
