AWARDS

John Platter 2008 - 4 Stars

It goes without saying the Hermanuspietersfontein should have this confident wine in its portfolio. This is Bartho's tropical style wine for which he is known. He has chosen grapes from the vicinity as well as close by Elim for this harmonious wine. This, Bartho says, is "a wine that will keep".
