Information about "Holden Manz Chenin Blanc 2023"
The Holden Manz Chenin Blanc 2023 presents a delicate golden hue, inviting you into an elegant bouquet brimming with notes of ripe pineapple, vibrant citrus, and crisp Granny Smith apple. Hints of white blossoms and river stones enhance the aromatic profile, complemented by subtle nuances of buttery toast and fine oak. On the palate, it showcases a medium body with a beautifully balanced acidity, offering a delightful interplay of flavors that culminate in a long-lasting finish, providing a truly enjoyable experience.
This hand-harvested fruit comes from 40-year-old bush vines and is initially cooled to 5ºC upon arrival. The grapes are crushed, and the resulting juice is placed in a combination of oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. Fermentation occurs solely from natural yeasts found on the fruit and in the environment, with aging in both new and used French barriques on the fine lees. The lees are stirred regularly to impart richness and complexity into the wine.
