Farbe: Heller Gelbton und eine lebhafte Perlage.
Nase: Die Nase offenbart zarte Noten von leichten tropischen Früchten wie grünem Apfel und Ananas, ergänzt durch Anklänge von Ingwerkeks und frischer Zitruszeste.
Gaumen: Am Gaumen beginnt er mit einer sanften Süße, die tropische Fruchtaromen bis zu einem knackigen mittleren Gaumen trägt. Dezente Töne von weißem Pfeffer und lebhafter Zitruszeste verleihen Frische und Auftrieb. Leicht, erfrischend und trinkfreudig mit einem sauberen, spritzigen Abgang.
Vinifikation: Die Trauben wurden bei 20,5° Balling gelesen, wobei nur der frei ablaufende Saft für die Herstellung dieses eleganten Schaumweins aus Viognier verwendet wurde. Die Gärung fand in temperaturkontrollierten Edelstahltanks bei 12-16°C mit ausgewählten Hefestämmen statt, um die zarten Fruchtaromen zu erhalten. Der Wein reifte sechs Monate auf der Feinhefe, um Textur und Komplexität aufzubauen und gleichzeitig die Frische zu bewahren. Anschließend wurde er abgefüllt, um seine natürliche Lebendigkeit und seinen jugendlichen Fruchtausdruck einzufangen.

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.
