Isliedh
Isliedh is a remarkable combination of Cape coastal Sauvignon Blanc drenched in richly textured Sémillon, both varieties adding to the wine's complexity.
Accolades
- Platters 4,5 stars
- Tim Atkin 96 points

Winemaking
We hand select the Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon separately from two specific vineyard parcels, facing the most challenging conditions on the sea-facing mountain slope; severe winds and rocky, decomposed granite soils result in tiny bunches packed with flavour and complexity.
Composition
- 66% Sauvignon Blanc
- 27% Sémillon
- 7% Sauvignon Gris

“Riandri Visser’s first standalone vintage is a cracker. The Cape Point Isliedh is a benchmark South African white and the 2017 is one of the finest to date. Buchu, spice, florals and good fruit concentration are underpinned by a fine acidity with a saline, lingering finish. A greater degree of Sémillon adds gravitas to the 2017; similar to the best ageing vintages of the past.”
