My first impression of vintage 2010 was “here is a great year for red wines”. But blow me down; here is a “beaut”. It is a whole lot of white wine at its best.

The fruit originates from this special vineyard, which is located in a blind valley behind the village of Villiersdorp. We have been sourcing fruit from this location for the past twenty years. This non-irrigated superior quality fruit grown in a late ripening location some 700 metres above sea level has always produced superb wines. The age of these vines are now beyond twenty years and contribute to a mature softness in its texture. While full-bodied and opulent in style, the mouth-feel sings with notes of fruitiness and tropical flavours.

Ripe yet delicately balanced with a subtle mix of tight French oak; this “white peach” personality has an endearing quality. It ends in a long, layered finish where the flavours build on one another. Predictions for maturation to greater heights are very good!
