Information about "Mother Rock Paying the School Fees 2023"
The first white wine from the promising Platteklip and Piket-Bo-Berg regions is produced in minuscule quantities. This natural wine is the result of organic viticulture, with Johan Meyer employing a minimalist approach in the cellar, often without sulfur additions. Delight in a complex array of hay, Fynbos flowers, zesty orange citrus, and refreshing melon nuances, alongside hints of salty dough and waxy honey. The Mother Rock Paying the School Fees captivates the palate with delightful peach and citrus flavors, supported by a vibrant acidity and pleasing texture.
This cuvée blends 39% Sauvignon Blanc, 23% Chardonnay, 23% Grenache Blanc, and 15% Chenin, resulting in a golden hue after 22 months of skin contact. The Platteklip vineyards, situated at 650 meters above sea level, rise to 785 meters, just 35 kilometers from the Atlantic Ocean.
