Very fine mousse. Aromas of a partial #barrelfermented base wine and lees, vanilla, cream and pastries. On the palate it has surprising citrus and stone fruit and a touch of elderflower. #southafricanwine #capeclassics — 9 years ago

Dark cherry, a little earth and tartness when first opened. After breathing some sweeter pomegranate notes showed. Very interesting 2001 vintage. — 10 years ago
This was great! A little funky of nose, super mineral with gentle hints of lemon and pretty high-toned greenness. A steal for 20GBP. Look forward to bottle #2! Cardiff/hotel — 10 years ago

Recognizable as sauv blanc, but so different from my frequent New Zealand sauv blancs. No grapefruit or grassiness. No cat pee. Just classic sauv blanc fragrance and minerality. — 11 years ago

This is a YOUNG WINE. I decanted for 2-3 hours and it really benefitted. I’ve had it at 8 years and it really shines. Very enjoyable now with some air but clearly more to say in the future. — 7 years ago
Bright translucent ruby core, on the nose the wine displays a nice freshness of red berries and candies cherry. The palate is medium bodied, juicy with good length. A couple more years of age and this wine will sing! — 8 years ago
Pure class here; feminine; pale in color and clear; cranberry, light strawberry, roses, minerality; restrained and elegant; no rough edges and nice acidity. Excellent QPR. — 9 years ago

At Batard in NYC. Decanted. Nice aged ruby color. Sweet nose including ripe berries, mushroom, forest floor and some spice. Good mouth feel that lasts long enough to give you the terroir impact. Really like the finish. This was on the wine list at two restaurants in NYC this week and both somms said this was a recent direct release from the domaine. So good provenance and a good showing for a so so vintage. — 10 years ago
