David & Nadia Aristargos 2023
Swartland, South Africa
Chenin blanc (51%), Sémillon (11%), Colombar (10%), Roussanne (8%), Clairette blanche (6%), Marsanne (6%), Verdelho (4%), Viognier (2%) and Grenache blanc (2%).
The Aristargos 2023 is again dominated by Chenin blanc and shows our focus on working with Certified Heritage Vineyards (Chenin blanc, Sémillon, Colombar and Clairette blanche). We also keep the backbone of this wine from granitic soils of the Paardeberg. Chenin blanc from shallow shale soils in the Paardeberg and iron rich clay soils to the west of Malmesbury are also added. We still see dry land farmed bush vines deliver high quality wines year after year, and this showcases the ultimate reason why Chenin blanc is our main focus in the Swartland. In total, grapes from 16 different vineyards were used, picked in 23 different lots.

94 Points – Tim Atkin MW
Chenin Blanc based, with the other 49% made up of eight different, mostly Mediterranean varieties, this is a beautifully judged assemblage from David and Nadia Sadie. Curated in neutral oak, with subtle bitterness from partial skin contact, it has enticing layers of passion fruit, pear and lemongrass and a stony, slightly salty finish. 2024-29
