Rocking Horse – Cape White Blend, Thorne & Daughters

TASTING NOTESRocking Horse is our cornerstone wine and takes its name from a wooden rocking horse that we made for our daughters out of old oak barrel staves. This is our signature wine and it is where all our work comes together to make our most complete wine.The wine is composed from a number of carefully selected vineyard sites in the Western Cape. Notes of hay, wild honey and nut brittle aromas on the nose lead into a rounded, intense palate of honeybush, yellow plums and a subtle gun flint smokiness with a long full bodied finish.NUTS & BOLTSSemillon blanc – 35% Franschhoek – 38 years old – alluvial soilsRoussanne – 28% Stellenbosch / Paardeberg – 13 years old – decomposed granite / clayChardonnay – 16% Ceres Plateau 7 years old – clayChenin blanc – 15% Paardeberg 41 years old – decomposed graniteClairette blanche – 6% Swartland 36 years old – decomposed granite
