Terrasse is a seamless, skilfully blended cuvée of Chenin Blanc with 54% Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Roussanne, Viognier and Marsanne. Barrel-fermented and aged in older oak, it's floral, spicy and intense, marrying citrus, pear and clementine flavours and a touch of tannic grip. 2023-28
The 2022 Terrasse comes from the estate, using indigenous yeast with 12 months in mostly 500-liter French oak barrels. The varieties complement each other nicely here, the Chenin in the driving seat: honeysuckle, orange pith, popcorn and light almond scents. The palate is vivacious on the entry, taut and linear, a "vertical" white Stellenbosch white with an edgy, waxy-textured sapid finish that beckons you back for another sip. Excellent.
