Pear Tree White 2012 89+ Points



Western Cape blend of Chenin Blanc & Viognier, showing a pale bright straw with yellow green reflections.

Clean with moderate plus intensity bursting with fresh lime, green pears indeed, paw paw, and melow, orange blosson adds interest, pebbly minerals, precise, very good purity.

Dry, crisp and zesty, love the high acid structure, bright and racy, revving style, freshly squeeze lime juice, citrussy texture, salty tang, grapefruit zest, impressive value at around R 35 retail, drink now until 2016+
