Vines are pruned to deliver well balanced crop and vineyard practices gets managed accordingly. The need for irrigation gets monitored on a weekly basis to ensure the vines never stress during ripening phase

Lovely, especially during a domestic

5 stars

Enjoyed with a Caribbean style meal. Very light and dry. One on the nicest wines I have bought in a while. It’s especially nice when you’ve had an argument with your other half and want to get smashed and dwell on your relationship’s failings!

Excellent choice

5 stars

Very tasty. Light and zingy yet full of flavour. Good with water too.

Disappointing fizzy and slightly acid sour. Certai

1 stars

Disappointing fizzy and slightly acid sour. Certainly a poor SA example of Chenin Blanc, not up to scratch. One glass drunk, with poached salmon, the rest thrown away. We were forced to use our last bottle of Toronto’s from Argentina.
