Description
Darling Cellars Old Bush Vine Chenin Blanc comes from their renowned old bush vines which are selected for their uniqueness in prominent terroir flavours. The 2022 Old Bush Vine Chenin displays a beautiful medium light straw hue in the glass and is made in a ripe tropical style with a split personality being elegant on the one hand but serious and bold on the other. Tropical flavours of ripe yellow peaches, white pear, a touch of vanilla blossoms, toast, butterscotch, orange skin and pineapple meet you on the nose. This wine shows many layers as the Chenin Blanc opens up in your glass.
Darling Cellars OLD BUSH VINES Range is a dedicated concept from site selection, through to the final drop in the glass at the end of the bottle.
