TASTING NOTES

100% Chenin Blanc

Pale lemon gold at a glance, this is a gloriously fresh and pure style of Chenin Blanc. Upfront ripe, juicy peach and pear fruit aromas are balanced with notes of dried apricot and a lick of oak spice. The palate is youthful but wonderfully luscious, refreshed by mouth-watering acidity and a lingering fruit core finish that provides complexity and texture. Delicious with crisp, caramelised pork belly, duck breast with honey and spices, or smoked mussels. For a lighter pairing, enjoy with a flavourful vegetable Korma curry.
