100% Chenin Blanc

Wine of Origin: Cederberg
Winemaker: David Nieuwoudt

This wine is produced from the 23-year-old Five Generation Chenin Blanc block and shows remarkable winemaking finesse. Naturally fermented in concrete egg and aged on its fine lees for 10 months.

Tasting Notes: This wine boasts a palest yellow colour with brilliant luminosity and a perfumed nose that reveals heady white blossoms, summer-ripe pears, crushed pineapple, and a defined citrus lime edge. On the palate, the wine is chiselled with pure fruit and a sense of weightlessness, unveiling additional notes of preserved ginger and crushed green peppercorns. This intriguing wine is celebrated for its purity and linearity, concluding with a succulent, savoury lemon/lime cleansing finish.

While it shows beautifully now, it will reward those with patience for many years to come. To fully appreciate its complex aromas, be mindful not to serve it too cold and use a larger glass.
