2020 Miles Mossop Saskia
£26.50
“White blends as good as this are some of the glories of the Cape. Sourced from four different growers, this is a medley of Chenin Blanc with 32% Viognier, Verdelho and Clairette Blanche. Floral, pithy and complex, with notes of lemon zest, struck match and apricot, fine oak and a fresh, tangy, vivacious finish.”
94 Points, Tim Atkin MW
“Candied lemon peel and wonderful plaited weave of bitterness and sweetness; citrus and pineapple, tarragon and white pepper. Layers into layers scattering into kaleidoscopic complexity. Such a great blend. Fruit bursting in the mouth, dazzling with so much abundant, unimpeded youth and energy that it’s impossible to believe that this is a four-year-old wine. So, so young and alive and vibrant. Fine-ground spice texture on the finish. This has a very long life ahead of it, even though it is recklessly, exuberantly gluggable right now.”
17.5/20 Tamlyn Currin for Jancis Robinson MW
