Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection Chenin Blanc 2023 13.5% 750ml

Kleine Zalze Vineyard Selection Chenin Blanc 2023 13.5% 750ml

Flavours of melon, white peach and almond blossom and a hint of minerality that adds to the elegance of the wine. Masterfully oaked, this wine is textured and creamy on the mid-palate with a lively, crisp finish. This wine can be enjoyed now, but with careful cellaring it should age gracefully over the next 10 years.

VINIFICATION

The grapes for this wine comes from selected “Bush Vine” vineyards in Stellenbosch. The average age of these vines are 35 years and most of them are planted on decomposed granite soils. Owing to the nature of bush vines, careful canopy management was exercised so that no bunches were exposed to excessive sunlight and to ensure even ripening of the grapes. Due to a cool, wet spring, budding was seven to 14 days later than usual, but consistently good and even, promising a great vintage.
