Description
In a nutshell:
Crisp, elegant South African Chenin Blanc unveiling layers of ripe fruit and subtle oak - a wine for thoughtful sipping.
The lowdown:
This Chenin Blanc boasts a complex aromatic mosaic of white peach, ripe apple, quince, and just a hint of fennel. The grapes hail from mature bush vines, yielding concentrated fruit. Fermentation in oak vats adds a pleasing roundness to the palate, where flavours of stone fruit and honeyed notes mingle with crisp minerality. The finish is satisfyingly long and sustained. This is a textured and nuanced wine offering a thoroughly enjoyable drinking experience.
The Producer:
Waterkloof, founded in 2004 by Paul Boutinot, is a haven for thoughtfully produced wines. This family-owned estate embraces organic and biodynamic practices, boasting the prestigious WWF Biodiversity Champion status. High on the Schapenberg hills, vineyards overlook False Bay, where cool breezes and long growing seasons nurture balanced grapes. In the cellar, winemaker Nadia Langenegger takes these gems and lets their natural character shine through minimal intervention. The results of her labours shine through clearly in their authentic, elegant wines.
When to drink:
A crisp, versatile white - perfect with seafood dishes, or try it alongside a creamy pasta or mushroom risotto.
Suitable for Vegans, Organic
