Description
Country of origin: South Africa
Wine Type: Dry White Wine
Tasting Notes: This wine displays the classsic bakes apple and zippy citrus aromas with soft, delicate apple fruit on the palate balanced by crisp acidity. Extened lees contact gives this great value wine some real weight and character, the barrel fermented component adds texture and finess too.
Food match – A great partner to grilled fish, chicken and salads. Wonderful with Cape Malay curries, spicy mango salads and brightly flavoured pan-Asian cuisine
A zero sugar chenin blanc from South Africa. They just get it down there and understand what the modern day consumer is looking for. A cleaner production, refind by innovation to offer light wine that packs the punch.
This Chenin Blanc is sourced from vines grown on sandy loams over granite bedrock, the classic Cape soil type. No irrigation is used in the vineyards and very little crop control is needed due to the ages of the vines naturally restricting yield. Part of the blend is wild yeast fermented and a tiny percentage in old barrels. The wine is left on fine lees for an extended period for greater palate weight and mouthfeel
