Johanneshof Cellars
Sauvignon Blanc 2016 This Sauvignon Blanc has a fresh tropical bouquet with subtle hints of gooseberry and soft apple notes. These are followed through on the palate. The wine is dry and is a light soft style avoiding aggressive acidity but finishing on a soft refreshing note. 
Johanneshof Cellars
Riesling 2015 A youthful bouquet of blossom with floral notes and hints of dried pineapple and apricot. The palate is luscious and full. A lemon meringue pie palate, citrusy and limey, powerful and punchy, finishing in a great but balanced fresh, zingy ending.

Johanneshof Cellars 2011 Noble Late Harvest Riesling
A bright golden yellow coloured late harvest Riesling - perfect accompanied by panna cotta, creme caramel and creme brulee (or a fantastic match with a complex cheeseboard!) Plenty of botrytis influence help drive this rich wine although the Riesling character is still evident. With a highly concentrated nose of honey, lemon and lime, the palate has delicate flavours of apricot, almond and tropical fruit.

Johanneshof Cellars 2014 Pinot Noir Maybern Single Vineyard Reserve
Our Maybern vineyard is a tribute to Warwick's parents May and Bernard - The Maybern vineyard is located here behind our cellar door in Koromiko - it is a 30 degree North West facing steep slope - making mechanical intervention tricky- all work on this vineyard is done by hand! Be seduced by the nose of raspberries, cherries and strawberries. This is a powerful Pinot Noir with earthy and savoury characters of mushrooms and spice with a touch of smoke and a long lingering finish. At it's best: now to 2020 Released November 2015 4,5 ✪✪✪✪ 91/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit Nov 2015 4 ✪✪✪✪ Raymond Chan Wine reviews Nov 2015
