‘Using components from Piekenierskloof, Stellenbosch and the Swartland, this is a stylish cuvée of Chenin Blanc, 30% Verdelho and 8% Grenache Blanc that showcases Franco Lourens' skills as a blender. Stony and scented with notes of fynbos and petrichor, a hint of skin tannin quince, citrus and greengage. A delight. 2024-30.’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 95/100

‘62% Chenin Blanc, 30% Verdelho and 8% Grenache Blanc (five days skin contact). Grapes sourced from across the Western Cape. No Colombar and Palamino as was the case in 2021 and 2022. Stone fruit, lemon, soft citrus, potpourri, ginger and a little yeasty complexity on the nose. The palate is intense but not weighty – good clarity of fruit and snappy acidity before a finish that’s dry, more salty than grippy. Alc: 13%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 95/100

‘The 2023 White Blend Linda Carien was whole-cluster-pressed, with five days of skin contact for the Grenache Blanc. It matured in neutral oak for ten months. This has a nuanced bouquet that suggests decanting would be beneficial, but you'll be rewarded with attractive orchard fruit, orange blossom and lime aromas. Taut and linear, the palate is well balanced with crisp acidity and ample freshness on the finish, with a hint of frangipane on the aftertaste—a delightful follow-up to the excellent 2022. 2025-2035’ - Neal Martin, Vinous, 92/100
