Rall Grenache Blanc 2021 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Piekenierskloof
R305
'Grapes predominantly from Piekenierskloof but now also including a small portion from a Swartland vineyard on schist. Some struck-match reduction before peach, citrus and pineapple while the palate is wonderfully lean and direct – impressive fruit density to go with a cracking line of acidity before a bone-dry finish. Pure and focused.' – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 96/100
'Now including some grapes from the Swartland - hence its Coastal appellation - this is still dominated by the freshness and focus of its Piekenierskloof base. Fermented in concrete eggs, it has fynbos and rooibos tea aromas, subtle, stony reduction, a leesy mid-palate and the chiselled acidity of the variety. 2023-28' – Tim Atkin, MW, South African Special Report 2022, 94/100

Producer information | Donovan Rall is one of SA’s finest, most exciting winemakers. In 2008, it all started with a bang when his first Rall White was awarded a Platter’s 5-Star. Since then, Donovan’s wines have continued on an unbelievable upward trajectory. He produces some of SA’s most sought-after wines including the stellar AVA single-vineyard wines, and his near-cult Rall White. |
