"Cape white blends deserve to be much better known as these are some of the country’s highlights. This is based on Grenache Blanc, with 24% Roussanne and 12% each of Chenin Blanc and Verdelho. Fermented and aged in second-fill barrels, it has a touch of flinty reduction, good texture and intensity, a medley of greengage, lime and waxed lemon flavours and a dab of oak spices. 2026-30" – Tim Atkin MW South Africa Report 2026, 93 points

On the palate

White flowers and ripe citrus lead into pear, orange peel and a gentle spice note. The palate is vibrant and elegant, with juicy citrus, mineral freshness and a creamy texture carrying into a long, smooth finish. A strong fit if you like dry white blends with bright acidity, layered texture and no oakiness.
