Chenin Blanc
Stellenbosch
This Chenin Blanc, shows aromas of dried summer fruits and a mineral characteristic that follows to the palate. The older vineyards impart minerality in the wine, that in tandem with the richly layered mouthfeel, serves to enhance the finely textured body. The palate is concentrated and rich, with green fig adding to the character of the wine. The use of concrete egg fermentation and maturation contributes to the complexity, allowing the wine to showcase the pure essence of Chenin blanc fruit.
Evolution after 5 years
The wine’s aroma will begin to reveal nutty, almost honeyed sweetness, supported by the distinctive Chenin Blanc fruit notes on the nose. Meanwhile, the palate retains its richness in terms of texture and minerality. The ageing of our Old Vine Project Chenin Blanc enriches the wine, enhancing its fullness and complexity over time.
