Allee Bleue Chenin Blanc 2023

Tasting Notes
Analysis & Info

The intense aromas of tropical fruit are well supported by an elegant vanilla and nutty bouquet. The palate is rich and vibrant, with layers of sundried fruits, nougat, and a lemony aftertaste. The rich and ripe flavours are in perfect harmony with the zesty minerality.

Other	Grapes were sourced from selected vineyards in the Franschhoek and Jonkershoek areas. The grapes were picked at optimal ripeness, to ensure the rich, ripe flavours, Chenin is known for. The grapes were sorted, pressed and then settled. The juice was racked, and inoculated with yeast, and after doing 50% of the fermentation in the tank, it was transferred to Barrel to complete the fermentation process.
