'Grapes from a Paardeberg vineyard planted in 1982. Lime, white peach, green apple, hay and dried herbs on the nose. The most light-bodied and lean of the trio – pure fruit and zippy acidity before a pithy finish. Delicate and tightly wound.' – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 94/100
'Notes of grapefruit and trademark Swartland thatch. Edgy aromatics, limes and more citrus on the pristine palate leaving a crystalline mineral finish with plenty nervous tension.' – Winemaker

These Young Gunners first burst onto the scene with their maiden-release 2016 Thistle & Weed Duwweltjie Chenin Blanc which garnered a Platter’s 5 star. They produce artisan wines, focusing primarily on Chenin Blanc, and their grapes are sourced from organic and responsibly farmed vineyards from different parts of the Cape. |
