‘Beautififully shaped & succulently delicious is 81% Chenin with splashes Viognier, Roussanne & Verdelho. Lithe & supple, with scented stonefruit & honeysuckle, creamy texture from year on lees in large older barrels.’ – Platter’s Guide 4*(94/100)
‘Charla Bosman uses Chenin Blanc as the base of this wine, complemented by 9% Viognier and 5% each of Roussanne and Verdelho. Fermented in 10% new barrels, it's a white of considerable intensity and focus, showing layers of pear, citrus and tangerine, good grip and a fresh, stony finish. 2023-26’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2023, 93/100
‘A precious colour of gold. Focused minerality and zest with hints of peach, apricot and bruised yellow apple. Subtle mandarin, orange peel and a touch of salinity on the palate, followed by a very fine acidity. Lovely peach pith, apricots and nuttiness. It is rather textured and expresses a beautiful balance of minerals and dried fruit. The textured palate Is complimented by a richer fuller component which over time really balances out beautifully. This wine has plenty of versatility.’ – Winemaker

| Producer information | David Trafford's Sijnn project is based in Malgas along the Breede River. Forty kilometres away from any other vineyards, it's tremendously rocky soil and Breede River-influenced microclimate is unlike any other in South Africa. These unfiltered, unfined, real wines are made in tiny volumes and speak of Malgas' amazing terroir. |
