Oak, vanilla, peaches and lemon. A bit too much oak for my preference, but a nice wine paired with pork.

A very sophisticated South-African Chenin: vanilla, oaky, apricot, and vibrant but still gentle acidity on the tongue and a little sweetness at the end.

16/20 (88/100) Тона редукции в первом носе; в развитии яблоки и лимонный сок. Полусухое с высоким уровнем кислотности. Вкус соответствует аромату. Новосветкое белое. #capewine2018

Lovely! Nicely oaked in 100% new French. Subtle grassy notes. Light minerality.
