Cape South Coast
73% Chenin Blanc
15% Blanc Fumé
10% Viognier
2% Semillon
A significant portion of the Chenin Blanc and some of the Viognier benefit from 10 days of skin contact, giving structure and tannin to the wine. Aged in older oak barrels and a portion of Chenin goes into steel tanks for primary fruit notes.
“The nose bursts with honeysuckle, tropical fruit, orange, peach, apricot, hay, and herbal nuances. The palate is rich and textured, yet balanced, with tangy acidity providing drive (alcohol: 12.37%). A gently pithy finish enhances its food-friendly appeal. 93/100”
