Product information "Babylonstoren Candide 2018"
Delicately straw-coloured, the Babylon blind Candide flows into the glass and, with its elegant bouquet of fine tropical notes, provides a true feast for the senses even before the first sip. This seductive cuvée presents itself pleasantly fresh and fruity on the palate with delicious nuances of white peaches, limes and delicate lychee. A refreshing, yet stunningly complex wine with a well-balanced and fresh acidity and a long finish.

Chenin Blanc and Semillon were gently pressed, fermented in stainless steel tanks at a cool, controlled temperature for three weeks, and spent four months on the secondary yeast after completion of fermentation. Chardonnay and Viognier fermented in French oak barrels with a capacity of 300 litres per barrel and also spent four months on the yeast. Candide expresses the extraordinary versatility of Babylonstorens white grape varieties in an excellent way!
