Thorne and Daughters Rocking Horse 2020

Thorne and Daughters Wines was started in 2012 by John and Tasha Seccombe to produce authentic wines in the beautiful Western Cape of South Africa. `Rocking Horse` is Thorne and Daughters` cornerstone wine and takes its name from a wooden rocking horse that the owners made for their daughters out of old oak barrel staves. 35% Semillon Blanc, 28% Roussanne, 16% Chardonnay, 15% Chenin Blanc and 6% Clairette Blanche composed from a number of carefully selected vineyard sites in the Western Cape. Notes of hay, wild honey and nut brittle aromas on the nose lead into a rounded, intense palate of yellow plums and a subtle gun flint smokiness with a long full bodied finish.
