Critics Ratings
‘Superb complexity and textural finesse. This has a Grand Cru feel to the wine, plush concentration, focused yellow fruit concentration and harmonious acids, amazing balance and a delicious white pear, pineapple pastille finish. Wow.’ – Greg Sherwood MW, 96/100 (Jun 2019)
‘Firm and obviously very structured. Extremely complex. Clean, majestic and racy. Bone dry and transparent. Great wine.’ – Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Aug 2018)
‘Off 50 year old bushvines with unusually tall shoots, hence ‘High Chenin’, this typically richer than single-vineyard sibling. Refined 2016 has customary restrained pear & wet wool aromas, intense bruised apple flavours, with harmonious length & extraordinary presence.’ - Platter's SA Wine Guide 2018, 5* (95/100)
