"As usual, this is the wine with the highest natural acidity and most linear form. The Skerpioen 2019 is salty in character with lime zest on the palate. It is a very focused wine and possibly the best we have bottled since 2012. Keep for at least a year or two before opening.” Winemaker - Eben Sadie
“Skerpioen is quite a place: a wind-swept, seashore vineyard with sand and limestone soils that makes one of the Cape’s most distinctive whites. Produced from co-planted Chenin and Palomino, it's wonderfully yeasty, pithy and saline with mouth-watering freshness and notes of kelp and fresh bread.”
96 points, Tim Atkin MW, South Africa Special Report 2020
