Tasting Notes
The Grande Provence Cabernet Sauvignon from the Winery Grande Provence is a powerful and complex red wine that impresses with its multifaceted array of aromas.
In the nose, notes of cigar box, cherry tobacco, and cedar wood unfold, layered with blackcurrant, roasted strawberries, and bright red cherries.
On the palate, the wine shows a smooth, gentle entry with seamless integration of oak. The aromas on the palate reflect those found on the nose and are carried by smooth, polished tannins that linger like a first kiss.
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.
