The Naked Truth about The Weather Girl

Francis Pratt - Thursday, October 01, 2009
The Weather Girl 2008 has astounded us. It seems that everyone is as crazy about her as we are!

This is our 70% Sauvignon Blanc / 30% Semillon, Bordeaux style blend that the Wine Diva has said is “intensely drinkable”.

The Platter Guide gave her 5 wonderous stars AND she’s been whisked off to London for the Mega Tasting. Not bad for a maiden vintage!

She was also auctioned at the Cape Winemakers Guild and snapped up by The Berrio fans everywhere. So the naked truth is that you’ll find The Weather Girl rather elusive.

We have no stock at the cellar. We’re all sold out and missing her terribly. Your favourite stockist may have a bottle or two – and if they do, snap them up, savour them, and try to share them.

Don’t panic if she doesn’t last long because the 2009 vintage promises to be as gorgeous as her predecessor and will be ready early next year.

Let us know if you’d like us to keep some for you.
