Grape Varietals & Region: Chenin Grapes were selected from two distinct vineyards, namely from elevated (360m above sea level) Elgin, on light Bokkeveld Shales and granitic domes on sandstone remnants in the Bottelary Hills, Stellenbosch
Taste Profile: Primary white peach, stone fruit and fresh apple aromatics may evolve into nutty, spicy baked apple and cardamom notes. It has a bright, fresh line of acidity like a cool wave break which supports generous, mouth filling flavours of lichees, ripe pears and white peach and finishes with a long line of almond paste and lime zest.
Succulent stonefruit with a citrus backbone characterises these wines. Typically, they have notes of tropical fruit, and come from warmer climates. A touch of oak during the winemaking process also helps to give some softness to the wine.
Expect notes of peach, apricot, pineapples, melon & a buttery texture
WINES FROM UNIQUE REGIONS & BOUTIQUE WINERIES
Founded in 2019, we were bored with the typical Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Amarone & Moscato offerings at most bars & restaurants, and were inspired to dive deeper into the wine world!
