Tasting notes on the 2018 vintage:
'Every bit as good as the 2017, even though the vintage is less celebrated, this is an equal marriage of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc with an even lower pH. Grapefruit and elderflower flavours combine appealingly with the stylish vanilla oak, embellished by a herbal undertone. Drink 2021-27.' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2020, 95/100
'Equal sauvignon & semillon on 2018 - former’s blackcurrant, latter’s wax & lanolin come & go with aeration. Already attractive: elegant, fresh, beautifully balanced, succulent & bright with salty-mineral vein. All oaked - some new for semillon. Long development ahead.' – Platter's Guide, 4.5* (94/100)
