Perdeberg The Dry Land Collection Braveheart’ Chenin Blanc 2015

This un-wooded wine is a fine display of the ability of bush vine Chenin Blanc, grown under dry land conditions, to create intensely flavoured and succulent wines. Pear, lime, grapefruit and granadilla notes are all prominent on a very voluptuous and generous nose.
The palate is rich, pure and well defined, amplifying hint of pineapple, citrus, mango and litchi. Indulge now or mature to experience the unique potential of this wine.

 

This wine pairs well smoked mackerel, lamb stew, chicken curry or as a beverage to be used as food for thought!

Perdeberg Wines, basking in the shadows of the Paardeberg Mountain in Paarl, adopted its name from scores of Mountain Zebra that once roamed its foothills, mistaken for wild horses by the Dutch.
Established in 1941, our wines are rooted in a tradition of producing award winning wines grown in various micro climates in the area. The superior quality of Dry land vineyards and our innovative winemaking techniques combine to produce premium wines of world class quality.

The Dry Land Collection Wines are made from grapes of Dryland Vineyards, which showcase the uniqueness of the wines grown in this testing terroir. The wine is made in a new world style, complex with ample fruit and structure.
in the vineyard : 

The grapes are harvested from two vineyards 26 and 32 years old in the Perdeberg area. The soils are mainly decomposed granite and glenrosa.  The vines are in natural balance, giving a low yield of 7 tons per hectare to enhance fruit complexity.
