Ernie Els Big Easy Chenin 2019 is still very young with a shy nose, hints of citrus peel, notes of preserved lemon, lime and rounded out with ripe guava, quince and pretty white florals. While super fresh, there is
a hint of crushed almond to add weight to an entry with gentle acidity that follows to an all-round softer acidity kicking on to a medium long finish.
Food pairing: A beautiful summery wine, excellent chilled and enjoyed with light delicate dishes.

string(526) "Vouvray, Savennières and Montlouis are villages in France famous for their superb expressions of Chenin Blanc. Add to this list Stellenbosch in South Africa and the picture is complete. A waxy, citrus and cream styled white variety with stunning acidity and natural balance, it can produce deeply-flavoured wines from dry through to botrytis-affected sweet styles. It is a natural in every sense and in the hands of the greatest growers in South Africa shows the shimmering potential of the Rainbow Nation on the world stage."
