Description
In a nutshell:
A premium, generous and intense South African Chenin Blanc from the Stellenbosch area.
The lowdown:
Ken Forrester is widely considered one of the country's leading experts on Chenin Blanc and 'The FMC' is his top cuvée. The initials stand for 'Forrester, Meinert, Chenin the 'M' referring to Ken's long time friend and collaborator Martin Meinert with whom this wine was created. Fermented and aged for 12 months in oak barrels this is a wonderfully rich and layered wine with ripe stone and tropical fruit flavours, dried apricot, vanilla, honey and spice. The several levels of complexity are well balanced and nicely restrained in style and make a wine well worthy of it's exalted reputation.
When to drink:
Altogether subtle and understated in style it's a great aperitif and good with fish and shellfish and really comes into its own with exotic asian dishes.
