Thorne and Daughters Tin Soldier 2023 is a skin-fermented wine crafted from Semillon Gris in Swartland, South Africa. This grape variety, integral to South Africa`s vinous heritage, is sourced from a massal selection vineyard planted in 1963. The wine exhibits a striking copper hue following a week of skin fermentation. Flavours include gingerbread, tangerine rind and dried fruit elements, contributing to a dry, textured palate with an emphasis on balance between savoury and sweet characteristics.

The 2023 Sémillon Tin Soldier comes from Swartland, harvested from slightly younger blocks than the Kite, with one week of skin contact on a portion of the fruit. This has a very appealing, pure nose with Clementine, melon, lemon verbena and light hazelnut scents. The palate is very well balanced. This used to be one of John Seccombe's "funkier" cuvées, but the 2023 is stricter and fresher, with a pleasing sharpness and salinity on the finish. Excellent. Neal Martin1st September 2024
