Donovan Rall
Rall Red 2021 Magnum
"Released a year later than the rest of the Rall reds to allow the tannins to integrate, this is a serious, structured assemblage of Syrah with 13% Grenache, 7% Carignan and 2% Cinsault. Sappy and grippy, it marries blackberry and damson fruit flavours with understated oak spices and a sturdy, age-worthy finish." - Tim Atkin MW
Rall Syrah 2022
"Donovan Rall's unwooded Syrah comes from two separate north-facing vineyards on the same brown schist soils, not far from Porseleinberg. Deceptively dark in colour, this is fragrant, ethereal, rose petal perfumed Syrah that was fermented with 50% whole clusters. Juicy, spicy and peppery with garrigue, bramble and red berry flavours." - Tim Atkin MW
Rall White 2022 Magnum
Rall White 2022 , "This blend of Chenin Blanc 72%, Verdelho 24% and Viognier 4% now in its 15th vintage is possibly my favourite to date. Grapes grown mainly in the granitic soils of the Paardeberg and now also containing a big portion of fruit from the vineyard used for Noa this 2022 is certainly the most focused and age worthy white in this years release. All components fermented naturally and matured separately in a combination of 2000 litre foudre, seasoned small French oak and concrete eggs before blending and bottling after 10 months. 13450 bottles produced" - Winemaker's notes
Rall Grenache Blanc 2022
Rall Grenache Blanc 2022, "Donovan Rall gets all of his Grenache Blanc from two vineyards in Piekenierskloof these days, fermenting the result in concrete eggs. Taut, pithy, focused and mouth-wateringly fresh, it has a lovely interplay between lees, minerality and lemon juice and orange zest flavours." - Tim Atkin MW
Rall Cinsault 2022
Rall Cinsault 2022, "Always something of a bargain within Donovan Rall's stellar range, this 75% whole bunch fermented Cinsault comes from a celebrated vineyard in Darling. Aged in concrete and older wood, it's a fragrant, floral red that will appeal to Pinot Noir drinkers on a tighter budget, showing notes of potpourri, pomegranate and wild strawberry and suave, layered tannins." - Tim Atkin MW
Rall Red 2021
"Released a year later than the rest of the Rall reds to allow the tannins to integrate, this is a serious, structured assemblage of Syrah with 13% Grenache, 7% Carignan and 2% Cinsault. Sappy and grippy, it marries blackberry and damson fruit flavours with understated oak spices and a sturdy, age-worthy finish." - Tim Atkin MW
Rall White 2022
"The Rall white is an 80/20 cuvée of Swartland and Stellenbosch grapes, combining Chenin Blanc with 24% Verdelho and 4% Viognier. Showing some subtle struck match reduction, it displays flavours of citrus, beeswax and apricot, very understated oak spices and surprising weight and concentration for a wine with 12.5% alcohol." - Tim Atkin MW
