2022 Midnight Bakkie Rides Again, Episode 42, The Liberator, Western Cape
Bin end
In 2022, Chris Alheit ended up with more fruit than he expected. And so, with the help of Richard Kelley MW, this wine was born. It’s fresh, vibrant, and completely delicious. There’s notes of pith and straw, and vibrant acidity on the palate. The finish is long and saline: while these grapes didn’t make the grade for the Alheit’s legendary wines, this bears more than a little bit of their mark.
