Jordan Nine Yards Chardonnay 2019
Rating: 93 Points
“Nine Yards has shifted in style over the last few vintages away from honey and butterscotch flavours to something fresher and, I think, better balanced. Toasty, spicy and focused, with good zip, stylish 70% new wood and a textured mid palate. 2021-26” Tim Atkin
Jordan The Outlier Sauvignon Blanc 2020
Rating: 93 Points
“A wine that’s sometimes overlooked in the Jordan range - wrongly in my view - this is a 10% new barrel fermented Sauvignon Blanc that undergoes ten hours of skin contact for extra flavour and texture. Toasty, sappy and intense, with notes of cream soda and grapefruit. 2021-26” Tim Atkin
Jordan The Real McCoy Riesling 2020
Rating: 92 Points
“Pleasantly off-dry at 9.8 grams of residual sugar, this is already starting to develop a kerosene top note, with floral lime blossom aromas, steely minerality and a nice interplay between sweetness and acidity. 2021-25 ” Tim Atkin
Jordan Sophia 2016
Rating: 92 Points
“You might raise any eyebrow at the price, but Sophia is an ambitiously structured, ageworthy blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot that is ageing convincingly in bottle after five years. Acid-driven, with savoury tannins, coffee bean oak and notes of tobacco leaf and blackcurrant, this is an impressive cuvée. 2023-30” Tim Atkin
Jordan Inspector Péringuey Chenin Blanc 2020
Rating: 91 Points
“Mostly barrel-fermented in Burgundian barrels and aged on its lees, with 30% of the wine unwooded, this is a bright, tangy Stellenbosch Chenin with lots of juicy apple and stone fruit flavours, some aromatic spices and a core of lemon juice acidity. 2021-28” Tim Atkin
Jordan Barrel-Fermented Chardonnay 2020
Rating: 91 Points
“Nine Yards’ little brother in some respects, this is a very well-judged, easy-drinking Stellenbosch Chardonnay with some smoky, flinty reduction, citrus, toast and nectarine fruit flavours and a patina of oak spices. 2021-26” Tim Atkin
Jordan The Long Fuse Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Rating: 91 Points
“The Long Fuse is a varietal Cabernet Sauvignon that’s all about balance, poise and freshness. Deftly wooded in new and used French oak, it has granular tannins, fresh acidity and layers of plum and blackcurrant fruit. As its name implies, this should age nicely in bottle. 2022-27” Tim Atkin
