The wine has a soft sweet entry with a racy linear acidity. Ripe citrus and stone fruit flavours evolve into a lovely lingering dry earthy finish. This is a textured white wine with layers of flavour. \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003chr\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 0px !important; padding: 0px !important;\"\u003e\"The 2016 Keermont Terrasse underwent a little skin contact and was barrel-fermented in 225- and 500-liter barrels with around 10% new oak for 12 months. It has a fresh bouquet of white peach, honeysuckle and a touch of melted candle wax. The palate is well balanced, considering that Alex Starey said it was the first vintage that endured drought problems (hence the higher percentage of Sauvignon Blanc), offering grass clipping, gooseberry and nettle toward the finish. Very fine. - Neal Martin\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px; padding: 0px !important;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Vinous (August 28th 2018), 90 pts\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin-bottom: 0px; overflow-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px; padding: 0px !important;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"overflow-wrap: break-word; line-height: 22.8571px;\"\u003e\"Always a crowd pleaser, the Terrasse shows very appealing white stone fruit, lemon curd and floral scents.
