Chenin Blanc 2021, Spice Route

£15.95 per bottle

About this wine

Spice Route Chenin Blanc is from 44 year old vines displaying a complex nose with tropical fruits and peach followed by flinty notes. The palate is rich and broad, reminiscent of the koffieklip (decomposed granite and iron-rich clay) soils, with well-balanced acidity from the first picking.

Food pairing: Given some time in the bottle, this wine will pair well with rich crustaceans or some lightly spiced dishes.

Alcohol: 14.7% ABV

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."
