‘Perennially impressive chenin blend, with splashes viognier, roussane & verdelho, follows form: rich & buttery, with concentrated tropical fruit, delicate floral whiffs, weight & texture from barrel ferment/10 months in mostly older oak. Beautifully shaped. Also in 1.5 L, as Chenin.' – Platter's Guide, 4.5* (94/100)
‘The Sijnn White is built on a foundation of Chenin Blanc, with the remainder of the blend made up of 15% Viognier, 6% Roussanne and 5% Verdelho. Rich, opulent and textured, it has understated 5% new oak, pear and apricot fruit, some appealing skin tannins and plenty of extract. 2024-28’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 93/100

| 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. |
