'Bush vines planted on decomposed granite supply the fruit for this intriguing skin-fermented Grenache Blanc. Black tea and quince flavours are complemented by plenty of texture and tannic grip. Drink 2021-23.' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2021, 91/100
'Organic grapes, naturally fermented & 3 weeks on skins, then basket pressed (20% into Russian oak, 9 months), 2019 ‘amber wine’ has wonderful geek appeal with its husky tannic backbone, stonefruit, hint of nuts & waxy orange peel. Will age fascinatingly. 13% alcohol.' – Platter's Guide, 4.5* (90/100)
