Eben Sadie Kokerboom Semillon
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Named for the striking aloe plants near the old vineyard it comes from. The vineyard was planted in the 1930s, with a mix of standard Smillon and a red-berried form of Smillon once common in the Cape and probably unique to South Africa, but now almost extinct. Eben Sadie is considered one of the great preservationists and visionaries in the new generation of South African winemakers. To Eben, the vineyard and fruit are part of the story--the truest expression of his art and philosophy. Neal Martin recently called Sadie an "outspoken, peripatetic, terroir-obsessed winemaker who has been instrumental in putting Swartland on the map. He produces a small portfolio of comparatively expensive, but highly coveted wines based on Rhone varieties sourced from his seemingly never-ending search for pockets of old bush vines and unique terroirs. These are cerebral wines built to age." |
