Mulderbosch Steen op Hout 1997

Name: Mulderbosch Steen op Hout 1997
SKU: 975

This Chenin Blanc has the fullness of Chardonnay, with tropical spice island fruit. Our maiden vintage was in 1995 and were very satisfied with how this wine is gaining its complexity as it ages. You will find enticing acacia, honey, winter melon nuances. Almost sweet taste but ends bone dry.
