A ripe, succulent combination of 65% Chenin from a 60 year old Franschhoek vineyard and 35% Grenache Blanc from Paarl, both naturally fermented and aged 6 months in 2nd and 3rd fill 600 litre barrels.
A ripe, expressive nose with white peach, apricots and hints of pineapple and jasmine. The palate shows texture and generosity from the old bush vine Chenin, coupled with white spice and exotic notes from the younger Grenache Blanc, the whole ultimately finishing rich, yet fresh and textural. Stone fruits abound with good acidity. Versatile food wine and delicious with lightly spiced food- Thai curries and similar. This new 2022 is drinking beautifully.
