“An impressively characterful creation, the aromatics on this Clairette Blanche – Chenin Blanc blend boast notes of leafy honeysuckle, white blossoms, dry hay, dusty summer bushveld over hints of Granite, sea breeze salinity, white pear and yellow apple fruits. The delicate sapidity is more pronounced on the palate that’s glycerol and fleshy, deliciously tangy and bright with sour yellow plums, peach and nectarine fruits, displayed with impressive concentration married to a spicy sweet herbal component and a pithy white citrus nuance on the vibrant saline finish.” Greg Sherwood MW
Tasting Notes
Tim Atkin 93
A new white from Alex Milner, n Kaapse Ode is a tribute to the Cape made from Clairette Blanche from the Voor Paardeberg and 34% Chenin Blanc from Darling, both located on decomposed granite soils. Racy, tangy and mouth-wateringly fresh, this has aromas of white pepper and gin botanicals, palate of citrus and greengage and a lingering finish. An impressive debut. 2026-30

An impressively characterful creation, the aromatics on this Clairette Blanche – Chenin Blanc blend boast notes of leafy honeysuckle, white blossoms, dry hay, dusty summer bushveld over hints of Granite, sea breeze salinity, white pear and yellow apple fruits. The delicate sapidity is more pronounced on the palate that s glycerol and fleshy, deliciously tangy and bright with sour yellow plums, peach and nectarine fruits, displayed with impressive concentration married to a spicy sweet herbal component and a pithy white citrus nuance on the vibrant saline finish. This has all the attention to detail you d expect from Alex and Natte Valleij. Drink now and over the next 5 to 8 years.
