Silwervis Smiley Fresh Red V1 NV Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Western Cape
R165
‘Fine and floral on the nose with lovely cherry and strawberry, as well as a hint of black olive. In the mouth this is silky and rounded with a lovely freshness to the fruit – all strawberries and cherries with a nice fruit sweetness. The balance is fabulous: an enjoyable wine but also one with some complexity.’ – Jamie Goode, wineanorak.com, 94/100
‘The nose shows dark, macerated fruit – initially also notes of violets, herbs and pepper but these fade. Concentrated fruit with moderate acidity and fine tannins – a bit ponderous. Alc: 12.5%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za

| Producer information | The Terracura, Smiley and Silwervis wines are made by winemaker Ryan Mostert at the Voor-Paardeberg farm. Ryan Mostert is a self-professed wine geek and arguably one of the most passionate vignerons brought forth from Southern African soils. His experimental approach has gained him a strong following of sommeliers and wine geeks from around the world. There are two wines under the Terracura label, a Syrah and a Chenin blanc which are not widely available. |
