Waterford Estate Old Vine Project Chenin Blanc is made from old vine Chenin Blanc planted in 1966 and sourced from the Stellenbosch region. The 2020 vintage shows aroma’s of white pear and
pithy grapefruit, followed by elements of peach pip, light honeycomb and soft floral notes. The mouthfeel is delicate and smooth but holds a tremendous amount of mineral flavour and depth. The concrete egg fermentation drives purity and minerality which creates a lovely fresh and soft “sweet fruit” finish, on the palate.
Alcohol: 13.5% ABV

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."
