Wine Spectator, 94 Points
"Rich and opulent, with plenty of savory power and saltiness to maintain expert balance, this is a blockbuster of a Chenin. Honey cream and warm hay notes wrap around baked apple, Asian pear and quince, all set against bitter white tea tannins and crushed flint. Fleur de sel–dusted almond and ground ginger details chime in through the delicious finish, which goes on and on. Stunning."
Winemaker Notes:
"Expect ripe fruit aromatics including citrus, exotic fruit and baked quince or apple. In its youth, there can be a slight bitter almond edge that softens over the aging process. Expect this wine to drink well with 5-25 years of bottle age."
Alcohol: 14%
