TASTING NOTES
100% Chenin Blanc
This beautifully sweet and incredibly rare wine is seamless on the palate long after the first sip. One is immediately drawn in by notes of sun-dried apricots drenched with Fynbos honey. The stunning concentration and incredible balance of flavours, reminiscent of candied ginger and marzipan, make for a beautiful moreish drinking experience and very intense lingering finish, enhanced by its zesty acidity.
The grapes were picked at normal ripeness and then dried in the breezy outside conditions for the desiccation process, to concentrating sugar and flavour, and also to increase the intense, zesty acidity that is so important in making a balanced Straw Wine. After a slow long, slow natural fermentation, it was stopped at a natural balance after 8-10 months, with no additional intervention took place. A vintage Straw Wine is always bottled, but a few barrels were selected that go into a complex, Solera system of barrel-aging that started with the first Mullineux vintage in 2008. Only 1885 bottles were produced.
This wine is drinking well now and will age beautifully until 2030. Best served between 9°C to 11°C.
Neal Martin from Vinous describes it as: "It is an ethereal wine that gives me no choice but to use a simple word loaded with meaning and one I rarely use with respect to wine… perfection.”
