Complex and layered aromas of fresh pineapple, candied fruit and honey on the nose with hints of yellow stone fruit and fresh lime. Moreish, full mouthfeel from the time spent in oak. The palate shows Tropical, citrus fruit flavours with pithy dry finish.
Given some time in the bottle, this wine will pair well with rich crustaceans or some lightly spiced dishes.
The finish is long and refreshing.
The fruit for this Chenin Blanc is sourced from vineyards planted in 1978 in the Swartland. The vines are planted on a south-east facing slope and are dry farmed, yielding small thick-skinned berries. The soils are predominantly koffieklip (decomposed granite and iron-rich clay), known for producing rich and concentrated wines.
