Chenin Blanc, Swartland, 2022

Radiant and expressive with a firm core of complex white and citrus fruits with touches of yellow, moving into a stone-inflected pithy character. There is a lovely gloss and roundness to the finish in this 2023 – a lovely flowing, complex Chenin with many different elements. Produced from four vineyards, 70% on Paardeberg granite, 30% on iron rich soils. The grapes spend 24 hours in a cold room, then they are whole cluster pressed, settled naturally and racked off in to barrel for fermentation and aging in a mix of 500, 400 and 300L formats. Aged sur lie for 10 months.
