Fresh honey, melon a hint of white pepper aromas. Strong acidity, fresh lime and peach stone flavour, very precise and not quite rounded out enough for my taste.

Mix of vine age up to 43 years. Stainless and Concrete
Medium lemon yellow with a hint of green. Crisp acidity with a juicy lemon and pear element and acacia and honey. Lovely roundness. From Bot River ward of Walker Bay

Very perfumed Chenin. Would like to re-visit in a year or two.

👁 oro pajizo y limpio 👃 poca potencia notas cítricas y espárrago blanco 👄 buena entrada, sabroso, paso un poco alcoholico y final largo y agradable.

Flinty, graphite with lots of herbal character. Clean and precise on the palate. #chenin #southafricanwine

Stony apple and citrus on the nose, simultaneously fresh and full(-ish) on the palate. Good acid on the finish.
