Tasting Note
This is a pale straw coloured Chenin Blanc.
Beautiful viscocity results in a
well-rounded and elegant mouthfeel and
texture. The acid is well integrated and
balanced with the fruit resulting in a palate
that shows great length and fullness for
an unwooded wine. Primary fruit flavors
of white peaches, pears and pineapple
dominate the wine, a rare combination of
intense aromas, complexity, and length
- an excellent example of South African
Chenin Blanc.
