Kleine ZalzeCellar Selection Bush Vine Chenin Blanc 2020
About this product
The grapes for this wine comes from selected vineyards in Stellenbosch and Paarl. All the vineyard parcels were harvested at optimum ripeness and vinified separately. All the grapes were given 12 to 24 hours extended skin contact before only the free-run juice was transferred to tank for fermentation. The wines were fermented at low temperatures with selected yeast strains to highlight each vineyards specific characteristic. After fermentation the wine was left for a further four months in contact with the lees before putting the final blend together. Concentrated peach and pear with a solid body. It is clean, soft and refreshing. Sip on it now or cellar it for 3 years for a more complex experience.
