South Africa, Stellenbosch
R410
‘When you've seen the care that goes into harvesting and producing this world-class sweet wine, it tastes even better in the glass. Sourced from the oldest block on the farm, it's a refined, scented, lightly wooded sweet wine with layers of citrus, passion fruit and apple pie, 175 grams of residual sugar and incredible palate length. 2025-35’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 96/100
'Thrilling acid (8 g/L) keeps 2022 botrytised riesling dessert from cloying with its honeyed richness. Beautiful sweet apricot & tangy lime notes are perfectly poised, the result of careful picking & selection. As satisfying as stellar 2021 (96 pts), also fermented/9 months in older oak. Low 10% alc. 375 ml.' – Platter's Guide, 5* (95/100)
