Information about "David Finlayson Camino Africana Chenin Blanc 2023"
Produced from some of the oldest Chenin Blanc vines in South Africa, the David Finlayson Camino Africana Chenin Blanc 2023 stands as a highly esteemed representation. Crafted with minimal intervention, it allows the authentic terroir aromas of these ancient vines to shine through. On the nose, it reveals enticing stone fruit notes, notably green gage plum, complemented by pronounced minerality. The wine’s gentle, lanolin-like texture and subtle saline note on the palate reflect decades of vine evolution in the soil. An exquisite showcase of South African winemaking!
