Whilst the Thamnus Chardonnay was taking all the limelight, this Pinot has been tucked away in our cellar, biding its time and finding its voice. It is now singing.

"...Matured in 35% new oak, it has a lifted nose with redcurrant and cranberry fruit, a little sous-bois in the background. The palate is well balanced with a lovely, silky mouthfeel. This is far superior Pinot to the '22 and it displays great precision on the finish. Definitely, this is worth seeking out." Neal Martin, Vinous.com

The Thamnus wines are a real product of their environment. 10ha of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, nestled on the north-facing slopes in Overberg, overlooking the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. This is cool climate, cool plots and old, unique soils. Even the wineries imagery, using the rare ‘fynbos’ mountain rose as their labelling, shows the affinity for this special spot in South Africa. Style wise, winemaker PJ Geyer is certainly inspired by old-world styling. The deliberate placement of the plots is focused around retaining structure, acidity and gaining minerality in the wines. Very quickly, Thamnus is charming and bewildering highly regarded critics who follow SA closely. We are thrilled to have scooped them and can't wait for them to be sampled!
