Description
Tussock Jumper Chenin Blanc
Tussock Jumper Chenin Blanc has a tropical and fruity nose of ripe peach, pineapple and guava. The dry and medium-bodied palate has a crunchy acidity and rich flavour profile. Pineapple, white peach and melon flavours at the fore with a lemon citrus mark and flinty mineral accents. Closes in a long, clean and crisp finish.
100% Chenin Blanc. The grapes come from vineyards in the Helderberg and Paarl regions of Western Cape, South Africa. They also come from trellised vineyards on the high slopes of the Du Toitskloof mountains. The bushvine grapes from Helderberg and Paarl offer structure and length, whilst the grapes from the Du Troitskloof mountains ensure freshness and natural acidity.
