Tasting Notes
100% Verdelho from the Voor Paardeberg. It's rich, it's ripe, it's opulent, but so well-balanced. Keylime pie, mango and hints of cardamon, with the most lovely lushness to the palate, like a whipped creamy pudding and hints of ginger too. It goes exceptionally well with Thai food. If you like your whites bold, this is for you - slightly later picked, but very fresh and high acidity.

Every one of Pieter’s wines is a story, rather than a grape variety, and it’s the juice inside the bottle which reveals that story. He doesn’t own any vines, but instead scours South Africa’s winelands for top-quality fruit that has somehow slipped under the radar, now sourcing from nearly 70 sites. Some years he’ll make 20 wines, other years 35. With the benefit of anonymity, variety and regional identity take a back seat while parcel expression does the driving. These are some of South Africa’s most original wines, made by one of South Africa’s most original winemakers
