Such a smooth mouthful with orange flavors and beautiful melody. — 8 years ago
Friday night unwinding made perfect with a bottle of good wine. Even when you're out of crackers and have to lay your cheese on Ryvita! 😄 #tgif #pinotage #wineoclock #unwind #fridaynight #fridayfeeling #helloweekend #thankful — 10 years ago
2006. Honey, blood orange, apricot, nutmeg, baking spices. Reminds me of a Coteaux du Layon. Great lift and balance. Wonderful. — 11 years ago
Wow! Deep citrus botrytis thing. Cool stuff. Orange blossom/peel/burnt and flowers and spice and acid. — 7 years ago
Another lovely Chenin Blanc with a bright gold colour, hints of orange marmalade, and warm peach cobbler on the nose. The palate is oaky, almost Chardonnay like, dry and citrusy. I love my South African Chenins! — 8 years ago
Very pale yellow, almost devoid of color. The nose is bright and alive with ripe honeydew melon, green fig, citrus zest, alfalfa sprouts, and fresh grapefruit juice. Gorgeous flavors come in waves; tangerine, citrus oils, lime, lemon zest, lemongrass, cara cara orange, white grapefruit. The acidity is literally laser focused, like the edge of a perfectly sharpened chef's knife. Minerality comes towards the end; clean, white river stones, granite. Hints of wheat grass and radish mix with wet stones on the long lingering finish. This will get even better over the next 5 years. One of the last wines from the true Jedi Master of Sauvignon Blanc. — 10 years ago




Great white pepper. Surprisingly light and fresh. Northern Rhone elements. Tasty! — 12 years ago
This is a tiny family winery near cold climate Orange in NSW which was a welcome discovery when I was judging at the 2017 Toowoomba Wine Show. They make award winning Shiraz Viognier and straight Viognier in minute quantities. It would be safe to say this would be the first bottle of this wine ever consumed in Copenhagen as I brought it over here. This is a full bodied flavoursome and voluptuous White with attractive Apricot flavours and some bitterness to finish off. Very Good. — 7 years ago
Cape Mentelles prestigious Semillon Sauvignon Blanc blend with the addition of barrel ferment like a White Bordeaux. Nose of orange fruit flesh along with grapefruit notes. Medium plus acid which will allow this to be cellared. The winery says up to 15 years. — 9 years ago
A heavy charcuterie silver platter is served with baked honey ham, cured Spanish jamon, blood red chorizo, and smoked maple bacon. Hints of cinnamon, sweet paprika, basil leaf, gunpowder pepper, and cloves simmer on moist tobacco coloring zesty notes of ruby grapefruit, mandarin orange peel, soft kiwi hair, and peach fuzzed suede ~ buttered leather and flint coos as baby's breath on your nose.
Sandalwood and cedar patina the long legs of this elegant Blue Crane of a wine as it slowly grazes the river waters of the Indian Ocean. Nursed and balanced by the terroir of South African trade winds this purple warrior has flawless camouflage. Formal enough to serve the Master of War yet humble enough to grace the tongue of seraphim. The glass illuminates a select spectrum of mollusk purples and violets that have to be seen with the naked eye alone. Sublime in deed and grape. — 11 years ago
Red, mineral, dusty, blood orange. Texture not unlike a good northern Rhône — 11 years ago

Absolutely lovely unexpected orange wine (with the green bottle I thought it was a white). Interesting minerality. Dry on the palate. — 7 years ago
