Not Tonight Josephine 2020 is straw wine produced from Chenin Blanc in the Western Cape. Duncan Savage utilised fruit from high-altitude vineyards, dried on racks to concentrate sugars and acidity naturally. A luscious profile of dried apricots, orange marmalade and honey characterises this 2020 release. Despite the high residual sugar, the wine is balanced by a piercing acidic core that ensures it remains energetic and focused. Following fermentation and maturation in old oak, the wine offers a viscous mouthfeel and a long, crystalline finish.

The 2020 Not Tonight Josephine, the sweet wine in Duncan Savage"s range, has a more backward nose than other sweet South African wines that I tasted and needs some coaxing. It offers well-defined marmalade, lemon curd, quince and orange zest aromas. The palate is beautifully balanced and not as heavy as its peers thanks to a killer line of acidity. Zesty and vibrant, this conveys lots of energy and feels very persistent on the finish. Superb.Neal Martin1st November 2021
