Tasting notes
The Chenin Blanc 2019 from Winery Eenzaamheid is the perfect wine for any wine connoisseur. This unique white wine already impresses on the nose with complex notes of pineapple, green apple, and tropical fruits. On the palate, it shows a broad spectrum of aromas and shines with an intense creaminess.
Through the careful use of French oak, it presents itself with a beautiful minerality, accompanied by a very light acidity.
Only 1667 bottles of this Chenin Blanc were produced.
Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
