Rich spiced pear and apple with a honey and marzipan underbelly. Rich, full mouthfeel that has the lovely ‘fat’ of Swartland Chenin while remaining high enough in acidity to keep balance. Showing beautifully.

2012 Intellego Chenin. Very intelligent Chenin blanc, beautiful nose and many layers. Very full, almost too concentrated. Like you need a knife, but still fresh. Very long.

Heavenly, liquid manna from heaven! Tentatively scented, intriguing, not perfumed. At first tastes of pear and ripe quince, almonds and then with a gentle swirle you discover more layers, fine sweetness, a delicate acidity, fresh, not subdued, lingering, a very sensual experience, a long finish. This wine moves you, natural beauty in a glass ... A sin !
