Product information "Knorhoek Chenin Blanc 2020"
The Knorheok Chenin Blanc bewitches at the moment of pouring with an expressive and attractive bouquet of fresh lime, exotic pineapple and ripe gooseberry. These aromas, which are already absorbed by the nose, also unfold on the well-structured and wonderfully balanced palate, which, with its harmonious acidity and remarkable depth, provides first-class pleasure. The finish is rounded and soft, and this stunning Chenin, accompanied by fresh citrus freshness, lingers long and pleasantly.

The grape material fermented in a combination of concrete eggs and first and second filled barrels of French oak (500 l per barrel). The wines matured separately for seven months on the yeast, which was stirred up and down at regular intervals to transfer a richness and complexity to the wine. The wines were then blended and bottled for final enjoyment.
