Picked young to retain acidity and keep the ALC low, this Chenin Blanc was pressed whole cluster, fermented in stainless steel.
It was aged for 6 months ('sur lie') in neutral french oak puncheons (a 130 gal vessel barrel), as we wanted to highlight fruit characteristics, rather than oak - and was stirred once a week ('bâtonnage') to create texture. We arrested ALC fermentation at 4% Sugar to offset and balance the acid, and did not let malolactic happen for the same reason.
Great summer wine to enjoy poolside now, but will also age nicely, and will continue to develop for years to come because of the choices in the winemaking.
Shipping wine is not like shipping paperback books. Wine is perishable, heavy, the bottles are breakable and the deliveries require an adult signature. Protective shipping materials are required, and a single 750ml bottle weighs four pounds. We are always on the lookout for better ways of transporting wine, but meantime, please understand that proper packaging and shipping is a worthwhile investment to protect your purchase.
We're happy to include a note from you with any wine you are gifting someone. Just add whatever wines you like to the Cart, then navigate to the CART PAGE, and enter your message in the box provided there.
“On the nose, this Chenin displays Citrus, Pear and Ginger notes. In the mouth, it opens up to a wide variety of soft floral and Peachy notes with a spicy, solid minerality.
Chilled, it is crisp, with a structured acidic backbone and subtle Honey-like balance. As it warms, it really opens up to ripe Pear, Mango, Honeysuckle flowers and green herbs, and finishes with a balanced, lean and light mouthfeel.
Screams Ocean breeze and Summer wind.”
