About this Item
A 1.5 litre bottle of Raats Family Wines Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2018
The wine offers a complex nose showing quince, yellow apple and mandarin orange, with ginger spice giving more dimension. The stone fruit character follows through onto an exceptionally balanced, very delicate and fine-textured palate showing a Peach Melba character with an exquisite length and freshness. The wine lingers with hints of ripe nectarine and apricot, balanced with honeycomb and shaved almonds.
