Lobenberg: Eine extreme Einzellage auf kargem Schieferboden. Reiner Chenin Blanc, der cremig und viskos über den Gaumen gleitet. Reife Aprikose, Birne, Honigmelone, Wachs und feine Limette dahinter. Delikate florale Aromatik. Salzig steiniges Finale mit einer leichten Phenolik. Steht diesem Wein genial gut! Aufregend, spannungsgeladen. 97/100

Suckling über:
Chenin Blanc Skaliekop
-- Suckling: Inviting aromas of white peaches, nougat and orange peel. Medium-bodied with silky texture. Bright and fresh on the palate with lovely white tea character. Bright acidity. Subtle concentration pushes the length. Seamless balance. Complex, nutty notes at the finish. Wonderful. From vines planted in 1985. Sustainable. Drink or hold. 97/100

Tim Atkin über:
Chenin Blanc Skaliekop
-- Tim Atkin: Skaliekop sits on a small 1.4-hectare hill of weathered shale amidst a sea of decomposed granite on the Paardeberg. Especially chiselled and refreshing in 2021, this a gloriously focused, mouth-watering Chenin Blanc showing effortless old-vine concentration, citrus and green apple fruit and subtle oak. 2024-30. 96/100
