The bottle that is Koen Roose's playground - the blend varies per vintage. For the 2021 vintage this is 65% Chardonnay and 35% Riesling (yes). The palate is flavourful with tangy acidity – a rather curious wine overall. But very, very nice - what else? ;-)

Alc 13.4% - T/A 7.10 – R/S 2.8 – pH 2.99

The story behind the name: Not part of the Anglo-Boer War, but still a remarkable woman in South-African history. She lived in what is now the Free State and was part of the BaSia people. Still, despite being BaSia and a woman, she managed to rule over the BaTlokwa people with great success. She became a feared military strategist and war general.
