South Africa, Stellenbosch
R290
‘Sourced from a 20-year-old parcel on the Driefontein farm, this remarkable Verdelho makes you wonder why the variety isn't more widely planted in the Cape. Fermented in older oak before ageing on lees for nine months, it has impressive purity and focus, racy acidity, wet stone, flint, lime and green apple flavours and a yeasty undertone. 2024-29’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 95/100
