South Africa, Stellenbosch
Chenin Blanc
Description
Bright pale golden colour. On the nose the wine shows fresh floral and honey notes with hints of gooseberries and toasty oak aromas. The palate is filled with layers of dried fruit flavours. The wine has a zesty fresh acidity that adds to the freshness, resulting in a long lingering aftertaste. 11 months in 400L French Oak barrels. 8% new oak, the rest in 3rd and 4th fill.
