Talented winemaker, John Seccombe, makes this is distinctive and interesting wine from Semillon Gris fermented for one week with its skins. The result is beautiful interplay between intense juicy fruit, delicate textural fibre and subtle savoury depth. An engaging wine with notes of peach skin, greengage, citrus peel and bay leaf.

Vinous
The 2017 Tin Soldier now comes from a single vineyard in the Paardeberg of Sémillon Gris, the vines five or six years old with a portion that is whole-bunch-pressed. I love the bouquet here: gorgeous scents of mirabelle, jasmine, a hint of cracked peppercorns and melted wax. The palate is waxy in texture and quite spicy in the mouth, featuring touches of ginger and lemongrass, peach skin and pithy yellow fruit toward the persistent finish. Drink now or keep for a couple of years. Neal Martin1st August 2018
