R382.00

The Family range from Miles Mossop Wines is their flagship range of wines dedicated to Miles’ family which he considers one of the most important things in his life.

Each wine in this contemporary range of fine wine bears the name of a family member.  Each an expression of the highest quality in their style, reflecting a sense of place and unmistakably South African. Produced with fruit forward character, balance, texture and age-ability in mind.

Saskia is a Cape White blend comprised of 59% Chenin Blanc, 16% Clairette Blanche, 10% Grenache Blanc, 10% Viognier, and 5% Verdehlo.

The wine displays a stunning golden straw colour. Aromas of white peach, grapefruit, honeysuckle and citrus blossom emanate from the glass. The palate is rich on entry, packed with white peach and citrus flavours leading to a creamy mid-palate. There is a textured pithy finish with hints of toasted almonds and white pepper spice.

Description

“My winemaking philosophy is simple; source grapes from exceptional vineyards, pick them at the correct time and help guide them through the natural process of winemaking to produce expressive, individual wines of the highest quality, wines that I enjoy to drink.” – Miles Mossop

Miles joined Tokara as a young winemaker in 2000, after stints in Clare Valley, Napa Valley, Sicily and a few harvests with some of SA’s leading winemakers. He took this estate from infant to one of South Africa’s top wine brands in a rather short time. Miles Mossop Wines already started in 2004, whilst still full time at Tokara. He left Tokara in 2018 after 19 very successful harvests, to focus 100% on his own brand.
