MORE INFORMATION:
The grapes were hand-harvested at optimal ripeness and crushed separately in February and March. The juice was pressed, settled and fermented in stainless steel tanks using different yeast strains. The wine was aged on the lees and carefully blended before bottling.

On the palate, this blend reveals a remarkable balance of flavours and textures. The Chenin Blanc lends its signature richness and depth, enveloping the palate with ripe orchard fruits, such as succulent pear and luscious apricot. Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc contribute citrus notes, with tangy lemon and bright grapefruit adding a refreshing zest. The Viognier brings a touch of opulence, unveiling ripe peach flavours and a hint of tropical complexity. The Weisser Riesling adds a crisp acidity that elevates the overall structure and creates a vibrant mouthfeel.
