Sadie Family Palladius Magnum 2004 Bottle size: 1500ml
South Africa, Swartland
R5,000
The Sadie Family Palladius, the sister wine to Columella, has probably changed the most since its release. It started off with Chenin Blanc and Viognier as the main components but now boasts more than 11 varieties from 17 different vineyards. This is one of SA’s finest whites.
‘It has a wonderfully rich nose that’s perfumed and spicy, with herby, melony fruit. There’s a bit of jasmine here. The palate is dense and rich with lovely open fruit and good acidity. 18 months in wood (500 litre barrels) adds toastiness and spiciness. ‘South Africa has a great library of old white vineyards because of its distilling history’, says Eben. This is a fantastic wine. Excellent.’ – Jamie Goode, wineanorak.com, 95/100
