The Winery of Good Hope - Bushvine Chenin Blanc 2023
R149.00
(R891.00 for 6 x 750ml)
- Produced by Radford Dale Wines -
This example is a wonderfully lively, intense, fruity and beautifully balanced dry Chenin Blanc. Aromas of green apples and white peach invite the juicy and taut palate. A depth of fruit is what sets this wine apart. It shows great persistence of flavour and freshness that lingers on the palate long after the wine has gone. Very individual, the character of this wine makes it a perfect companion to warm summer days and long balmy evenings
These Chenin Blanc bush vines are situated on the gravelly slopes and extensively decomposed granite soils of the Helderberg where they benefit from the cooling maritime breezes of False Bay. Over the winter, rainfall figures came close to the longterm average for Stellenbosch, which came as a relief to many. With more moisture in the soil the vines displayed strong vigour. The cool daytime conditions (and especially nights!) of December and January meant that our earlier varieties ripened with lovely acidity and great freshness, all at lower alcohol levels.
