A rich and concentrated palate full of ripe orchard fruits is perfectly balanced by the racy acidity creating lovely tension, with notes of honeyed fruits and hazelnut on the long finish.

Expert review
A burgundian take on Chenin with lovely pear, nectarine and citrus fruit at its core. It's rich, deep and unctuous, with a kiss of oak spice, chamomile and wonderful mineral complexity. Excellent!
Chenin Blanc
Chenin Blanc is a white grape variety most famous for the beautifully lean and mineral expressions that come out of the Loire Valley in France and the rich and sweet expressions from South Africa. The wines are very aromatic and fruit forward, with flavours of quince, pear, yellow apple, chamomile and honey and can be made in a diverse range of style from sparkling, to lean and mineral, all the way to rich and even fortified. Chenin Blanc is quickly becoming a first choice for lovers of complex and fruity white wines and we think it's only the beginning for this amazing grape.
