Information about "Avondale Qvevri Chenin Blanc 2018"
The Avondale Qvevri Chenin Blanc is a very special wine. For one year it fermented and matured in Georgian clay pots and developed an unmistakably mineral bouquet with fine earthiness and clear fruit. Its elegant tannin structure underlines the attractive minerality as well as the lively acidity of the wine. Seductive nuances of ripe stone fruit, fragrant pears, fresh lime and fine spices caress the palate. Full and opulent on the palate with a juicy character, the fruity side of this Chenin is fully expressed. In combination with the fine earthiness and the pleasant minerality, this drop brings pleasure all along the line!

Das Traubengut wurde am ganzen Bund gepresst und der dabei gewonnene Saft in 8000 Jahre alten Tongefäßen aus Georgien, sogenannten Qvevris, auf der primären Hefe fermentiert. 30% des Traubenguts wurde entrappt und fermentierte 3 Monate lang spontan auf natürliche Wiese auf der Haut. Anschließend wurden diese 30% gepresst und in die Qvevris gegeben, wo der Wein weiter reifte. Nach ungefähr einem Jahr in Qvevris wurden die Weine verschnitten und auf die Flasche gefüllt.
