Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Anemos Chenin Blanc from the Winery Old Road Wine Co. comes from the rough corners of the wine country. Its name is derived from the unique terroir based on the ancient Greek word "wind".
The delicate partial aging in the French oak barrel brings forth a Chenin Blanc of great character. A wine that is complex yet fresh, crisp, and very stylish.
On the nose, aromas of apricot and peach with tropical notes continue on the palate along with ripe pear. The juicy fruit is balanced by a gentle acidity. A creamy finish rounds off the unique tasting experience.
The vines that provide the grapes for this wine are 35 years old, unirrigated, and located at an altitude of 420 meters above sea level. Due to these conditions, the Anemos from Old Road Wine Co. achieves a gentle acidity and perfect balance. At this altitude, the vineyard is exposed to a cool afternoon breeze every day.

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.
