"A wine that’s influenced by the whites of Pessac-Léognan, this varietal Sauvignon Blanc was fermented in 50% new oak and underwent full malolactic. Savoury and complex, it has good extract and concentration, layers of blackcurrant leaf, lime and grapefruit and a sheen of vanilla and nutmeg spice. 2026-31" – Tim Atkin MW South Africa Report 2026, 92 points

On the palate
Elderflower, poached pear and passionfruit lead into a saline, mineral edge. The palate is rounded yet fresh, with layered texture, vibrant acidity and a long stony finish. A strong fit if you like Sauvignon Blanc with more texture and oak influence than a classic crisp, unoaked style.
