Critics Ratings
‘This is an extraordinary wine, the color is still bright with a green edge. The nose is inviting with poised ripeness of fruit vs savoury evolved botrytis. The palate is clean, long with charming balance and wonderful tension – in very good stead and will be for another decade.’ – James Pietersen 2020, 96/100
