Product information "Alvi's Drift Albertus Viljoen Chenin Blanc 2019"
The Albertus Viljoen Chenin Blanc has a delicate brilliant straw colour that captures and reflects light like a cut crystal. Complex aromas of nectarine and peach and well-integrated nuances of roasted oak emanate from the glass. It pampers the palate with a rich and creamy richness and a silky mouthfeel. Notes of roasted cashew nut and vanilla bean enchant the senses; soft and full-bodied, yet incredibly elegant, with an almost everlasting finish. This wine was produced in an extremely limited quantity and only a few will ever enjoy this noble drop.

Die Trauben für den Albertus Viljoen Chenin Blanc wurden im Weinberg per Hand sortiert und am ganzen Bund gepresst. Der Wein fermentierte mit einer Auswahl an wilder Hefen und Kulturhefen im Fass. Nach der Fermentierung reifte der Wein auf der Hefe, bevor er zum Genuss auf die Flasche gefüllt wurde. Eine weitere Reifung von 12 Monaten erfolgt, hauptsächlich in französischer Eiche (40 % Neuholz). Diese Reben sind zwischen 25 und 40 Jahre alt und bringen Weine der Extraklasse hervor.
