Product information "Mullineux Granite Chenin Blanc 2021"
The Mullineux Granite Chenin Blanc is very distinctive in its aroma and always shows flint notes. It exudes seductive aromas of candied citrus fruits, ginger and brioche, a wine with great personality and a lively, radiant energy. On the palate it tends to a natural acidity, perfect balance and a long, complex and mineral fresh finish.

The grapes for this noble drop were immediately cooled down in the cold room after the harvest and then pressed all over the bunch. The juice was left to rest overnight. The juice was put into barrels for fermentation, whereby the yeast, which occurs wild in the natural environment of the winery, set the fermentation process in motion "spontaneously". The total fermentation time was 4 weeks. The wine also stopped the malolactic fermentation in the barrel and matured for 12 months in third and fourth-bottled French oak and was blended and bottled unfiltered.
