White, 2018
Rall’s flagship white, the White 2023 is comprised of 71% Chenin, 26% Verdelho and 3% Viognier, aiming for a base of high acidity and stripped back refinement. White fruits, citrus and jasmine vie with a touch of cool, spontaneous reduction and a herbal kick, opening up to reveal softer stone fruit and grapefruit pith. A gorgeous, enticing and fine Rall White.
critic reviews
The 2018 Rall White is matured in 225- and 500-liter used oak barrels. This has a very composed bouquet of pressed white flowers, hints of linseed and a touch of jasmine unfurling nicely with each swirl of the glass. The palate is very well balanced, offering clementine, pear and light peach skin notes that fan out on the waxy-textured finish. The persistence is very fine, and yellow plum and lemongrass notes linger in the mouth after the wine has departed. Superb.
