Catherine Marshall – Amatra Jono’s Wave White 2023

Bright, fresh line of acidity like a cool wave break which supports generous, mouth filling flavours of lichees, ripe pears and white peach and finishes with a long line of almond paste and lime zest.

What began as a festive three-barrel foot stomp event attended by a handful of friends on a south peninsula beach in 1996, produced a very palatable Syrah, and saw the founding in 1997 of the first true micro-winery in the Western Cape with Pinot Noir the focus. The aptly named Barefoot Wine Company trading as Catherine Marshall Wines has long outgrown its humble origins to become a legendary institution and exporting to most wine consumer destinations world- wide.
