TASTING NOTES
100% Chenin Blanc
The wine is approachable in its youth with fresh, bright aromatics and would age well for up to 8 years. It has flavours of white pears, fresh nectarines and may evolve into almond paste, baked apple and spicy cardamom notes as it develops over time.
The grapes for this wine were meticulously grown in the cool Elgin Valley with a small portion from old bush vines in Stellenbosch. The wine was fermented in handmade, old-world style traditional clay amphorae. These key winemaking choices have created a wine with broad layers of ripe pears, fresh stone fruit and white flowers on a canvas of flinty, wet stone that contributes to the overall texture.
