  • 100% Chenin Blanc
  • Dry farmed, bush vine on Hercules Pillar farm, planted in 1984, located in the SW part of Paarl
  • Hand harvested in passes to obtain both natural acidity (early picking) and riper flavors (later picking)
  • After a short overnight settling, the juice was transferred to stainless steel tanks for fermentation with wild yeasts
  • Aged on the lees for 5 months

Ripe apple and hints of peach on the nose and the palate. Subtle chalky notes add complexity and interest. The palate is juicy and will become richer in time. Typical Chenin acidity lingers on the finish.
