The classy  Leeu Passant Stellenbosch Chardonnay has flint, citrus blossom and salinity on the nose. The palate is packed with lime zest and crushed shells and has a textured, vibrant and long finish.

Review:

The 2015 Leeu Passant Stellenbosch Chardonnay had a similar analysis to the Elandskloof Chardonnay, but this had a quicker alcoholic fermentation and maintained a higher level of acidity, because of the difference in terroir. It is matured for 12 months in about 30% new oak. Now, this is a dead ringer for Burgundy with hints of almond and walnut infusing the citrus fruit, the reductive soil bringing to mind growers that employ a reductive style of winemaking. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, harmonious in the mouth with a pleasant sour lemon note that marries beautifully with the white peach and nectarine notes on the finish. Delicious, in a single prosaic word. - Wine Advocate 91 Points

The Leeu Passant Elandskloof Chardonnay has a nose of stone fruit and lemon biscuits. The palate has a creamy, limey, citrus character with exotic spice notes and is full but balanced by a fresh, tight finish.

Review:

The 2015 Leeu Passant Elandskloof Chardonnay is whole bunch pressed and barrel fermented in 30% new wood, inspired by some of the reduced style of Burgundy whites. It spent 12 months in barrel plus three months in tank, its first sulfur just before bottling. It has a well-defined, attractive bouquet with very slight reduction, praline and dried honey emerging with time in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a slightly waxiness, impressive weight in the mouth with a hint of sour lemon counterbalancing the controlled richness and weight on the finish. It probably needs another year in bottle. - Wine Advocate 90 Points

 Leeu Passant Dry Red
36% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Cabernet Franc and 31% Cinsault

Review:

The 2015 Leeu Passant Dry Red Wine is inspired by some of the classic South African wines from the 1950s and 1960s with tannins and freshness. It is predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Cinsault and a splash of Cabernet Franc. There are some stems in the vat and the wine matured in around 30% new oak. There is something traditional about the nose, in a positive sense, earthy red berry fruit, bell pepper and tobacco notes that feel quite intense. The palate is medium-bodied with grippy tannin, spicy in the mouth, drier than its peers and structured with plenty of black pepper lining the finish. It does hark back to the wines of old, albeit given a modern twist, more clean and less volatile. There is character here, a distinctive Cabernet-based red blend that will shine on the dinner table rather than on its own, and it deserves 4-5 years in bottle. - Wine Advocate 91 Points

Light, fluid, fruity
An icon among Niigata sakes, one of the most famous in Japan. A sake with fluidity, lightness, with a fruity nose (white fruits flesh). In mouth, it is clear and fine flavors on that slide as a source water to finish on pure and crystalline notes.

His name Jozen Mizuno Gotoshi, alone evokes the purity of water in mountains of Niigata. It goes wonderfully oysters, salmon tartare, the steamed white fish (sake, why not!). On a sashimi or carpaccio and crunchy pickled or cooked vegetables. Recommended serving temperature between 8°C to room temperature.

Review:

The most evolved of the lineup, with complex spice box, wild herbs, dried flowers, currants and scorched earth aromas all emerging from the glass, the 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon is beautifully textured, full-bodied and seamless on the palate. Up-front and approachable, it nevertheless has the back-end richness, depth and structure to continue to evolve for another decade or more. Drink now-2023.
