Rich and unctuous - oaked, full malo, and lees aged Chenin. All kinds of oak spices and creme fraiche masking Chenin’s varietal characters. Medium+ acidity, 14% abv. 20% new French oak fermented and aged. Full malo, lees aging, no Battonage though. Creamy and round.

This wine is the embodiment of everything I love about Chenin Blanc.
As it comes to temperature the first aromas to come out are vanilla lemon custard before transforming to an intoxicating mix of mustard seed and flesh of Charentais melon and finally Meyer lemon and wild honey comb.
Sorry Vouvray but South Africa has really surpassed you're attempt.
