The ‘Tin Soldier’ is deep yellow with copper reflections. On the nose are distinct aromas of tea leaves, yellow peach and grapefruit. The palate is rich, textured and creamy; the finish is long with notes of spiced apple, ginger and a refreshing salinity.
The Semillon Gris grapes for the ‘Tin Soldier’ are sourced from a single vineyard in the “Siebritskloof” (Siebret's Valley) on Swartland’s Paardeberg mountain. The vineyard was planted with cuttings of Semillon Gris taken from the old bush vine vineyard where the Semillon for the ‘Paper Kite’ comes from and is believed to be the only 100% Semillon Gris vineyard in South Africa. The soils are granitic sand and the seven-year-old vines are trellised.

Was referred to Rainbow Nations Wine from a friend. Glad they did! Great and informative selection. Even though I ordered close to Christmas the delivery was exceptional. Would recommend and refer.

Amazing selection of wines. I have ordered from them twice now and the wine arrived before the estimated delivery day, and very well packaged. And I should mention the great pricing for premium wines.
