ageing : The wine drinks well right now and may age for many years.

about the harvest: Chenin Blanc was harvested at 22Âº balling in March 2003. The harvesting was done extremely gently into small lug boxes, and the grapes transported to a shed to where they were carefully laid out on racks to dry. Blowers were rigged up to keep the air circulating.
