Golden Kaan Chenin Blanc 2007

Selection Degustation “Sommerweine” (Summer Wines), Germany - 4 stars "typisch für einen Sommerwein, sauber, Apfel, Birne, elegant, gut eingebundenes Holz, gute Holzqualität, dicht, cremig und lang“.
Chenin Blanc is the quintessential South African grape varietal, and this wooded, dry wine has a complex nose combined with ripe melon fruit, caramel and oaky vanilla aromas. It has a rich palate with a creamy butterscotch character and oak fl avours, adding a roasted aftertaste. A fresh and lingering wine experience!

Enjoy with fish of any kind, as well as with grilled chicken, cheese soufflé, seafood pasta and lightly spiced dishes.
