2022 Grenache Blanc, Rall Wines, Swartland

2022 Grenache Blanc, Rall Wines, Swartland

From 2 vineyards on the Piekenierskloof, aged in concrete eggs, this is an incredibly intense, saline, textured white from Donnovan. One of the Cape's best Grenache Blancs, this is seriously impressive, with energy, texture, and concentration.

Tasting notes

Donovan Rall gets all of his Grenache Blanc from two vineyards in Piekenierskloof these days, fermenting the result in concrete eggs. Taut, pithy, focused and mouth-wateringly fresh, it has a lovely interplay between lees, minerality and lemon juice and orange zest flavours. 2024-30
