Inviting aromas of guava and white peach with underlying floral and green fig notes. A full, rich palate of tropical fruit, citrus and spice leads into a long honeyed finish.
The grapes were sourced from a old bushvine block from the estate and from other areas in the Western Cape. The Chenin Blanc grapes were harvested by hand between 22 and 23˚ Balling with good harvesting conditions throughout.
Fermentation took place in a stainless steel tank at 12.5˚C and lasted 7 days. 10% of the wine was barrel fermented in older oak and left to age for 6 months in an oak Foudre. The wine was left on its primary lees for six months and stirred once a month.
Pairs with sushi, shellfish, salads, Chinese cuisine, chicken dishes with a creamy sauce.
