Tulbagh Mountain Vineyard White 2007 89 Points
Pale gold with yellow green reflections.
Clean, oxidative style, moderate intensity, citrus, pears and papaya, hints of terpene character, not too different froma partially aged Riesling! subtle oaking.
Dry with dash residual sugar, moderate acidity, fresh, richly textured, full, toasty nuts, high alcohol, phenolic grip distract, hence the 89 Points, could possibly have rate higher!!
Blend of Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay, Grenache Blanc, Roussanne and Viognier.
*re-lable as Fable wines due to change of ownership to Fable Wines
