Silwervis Smiley Fresh White V2 NV Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Western Cape
R165
‘Full yellow in colour, this has lovely depth and complexity. It’s rich but fresh with a citrus edge to the pear and apple fruit, showing nice intensity. Such drinkability and pleasure here with a wide dynamic range. Finishes with marmalade and dried herbs, with some lemony brightness.’ – Jamie Goode, wineanorak.com, 93/100
‘46% Chenin Blanc, 15% Colombar, 9% Clairette Blanche, 9% Sauvignon Blanc, 9% Semillon, 6% Grenache and 6% Palomino. 52% of the wine from 2023, 48% from 2022. 10% skin contact. Potpourri, hay, pear, peach, citrus and a hint of bee’s wax on the nose. Light and fresh with a salty finish. A wine that moves well from entry to finish and has impressive detail. Alc: 11.5%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 92/100

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. |
