Tasting notes
Anysbos Disdit White 2022
‘69% Chenin Blanc, 13% Roussanne, 12% Marsanne and 6% Grenache Blanc. The nose shows hay, cut apple, peach and apricot plus floral perfume and spice. Dense fruit with tangy acidity and a savoury finish. Round and relatively thick textured although alcohol is just 12.81%. More oxidative than previous vintages.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
Anysbos Tesame 2021
‘47% Grenache, 45% Shiraz and 8% Cinsault. Approximately 20% whole-bunch fermentation. Intricate and subtle aromatics of red currant, raspberry, black cherry, olive, rose, fynbos, and spice. The palate combines understated structure with vitality – fleshy fruit, bright acidity and fine tannins. The most complete and cohesive vintage of this wine to date. Alc: 12.31%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 93/100
‘Marelise Niemann's preference for freshness in her reds, especially in cooler vintages like 2021, is gloriously apparent here on this Grenache-dominated blend with 45% Syrah and 8% Cinsault. Bright, perfumed and nicely delineated, it's all about stoniness and focus, showing redcurrant, pomegranate and goji berry flavours and graceful, savoury tannins. 2024-29.’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 93/100
