A true reflection of terroir
92 points for our Galpin Peak Pinot noir
James Molesworth has rated our latest Pinot noir release, the Galpin Peak 09 – 92 points in the Wine Spectator Feb ’11 issue. “Rich and ripe, but very stylish, with gorgeous mulled spice, blackberry, briar, spiced bread and incense notes all woven together and driving through the long, black tea-tinged finish. This winery is now quietly rivaling Hamilton Russel for best South African Pinot Noir. Drink now through 2013.” J.M.
This endorses our status as a leader in producing world class Pinot noir wines from South Africa. Repeated vintages of this path-blazing wine continue to reflect a true celebration of Pinot-crafting, endorsing the Hemel-en-Aarde (Heaven and Earth) Valley in the Walker Bay region as a jewel in the terroir search for excellence with this illusive grape.
