Dry Chenin Blanc (<5g/l or up to 9g/l if TA <2g/l lower)
VINTAGE:
2023
MORE INFORMATION:
With the introduction of the concrete egg, this vintage becomes contradictory to earlier vintages such as 2021. Whereas 2021 was much more revving style of Chenin blanc, the 2023 is tight and to a certain extent more restraint. Nostalgic perfumes of freshly baked lemon cheesecake aroma with cinnamon and other sweet spice and fresh almonds. The palate is youthful and tight, with a full linear seam. In time, the palate will open up to a delicate textured, cool-climate Chenin blanc.
The balance of candied fruit and full mouth feel lends this
wine to elegant pairings of sweet desserts and dairy based
white meat meals. Examples of which include nutty almond
Nougat, gooseberry cheesecake with berry preserves and
mild, butter chicken curry, creamy shellfish or fresh whole
baked line-fish dishes.
