This hilariously named sweetie has the most raucous orange blossom notes on the nose and a slippery, syrupy palate. Made in tiny quantities this is a wine boffin’s dream date.

The Maria, a Noble Late Harvest; made from Weisser Riesling and Sauvignon Blanc; that is the fourth wine in the Short Story Collection. Grapes for The Maria are sourced from dry-land vineyards on the upper slopes of the farm, where sea mists from nearby False Bay create ideal conditions for Botrytis Cinerea to flourish, and the wine combines a bouquet of dried apricots and peaches with a balanced palate of fruitcake, honey and marmalade.

Concentrated Botrytis berries were hand-picked from selected vineyards to produce this Noble Late Harvest in the classic drier wood-matured style of Sauternes. Rich honeyed fruit on the bouquet is complimented by a seductive nutty oak spiciness. The silky smooth palate offers an earthy, wet river stone minerality which keeps the sweetness well balanced.
