Information about "Raats Family Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2018"

Raats Family Old Vine Chenin Blanc pampers with a complex bouquet of fragrant quince, white peaches and yellow apples and is accompanied by subtle hints of fenugreek, which adds dimension to the wine's mineral intensity. The stone fruit aromas already absorbed by the nose also unfold in the form of delicious taste nuances on the remarkably balanced and finely structured palate. Notes of peach melba caress the palate with excellent length and freshness. The finish opens up exciting nuances of ripe nectarine and apricot, tangy lemon and wet chalk. A masterful Chenin Blanc from Chenin-Guru Bruwer Raats!

Treatment in the cellar

Handgepflückt von Buschweinen und vertikaler Ziehung (40 Jahre und älterer Rebstöcke) fermentierten 50% des Weins bei 18° - 22°C in französischen 300 Liter Holzfässern, für sanfte, cremige Töne, die anderen 50% reiften in Stahltanks, um die Mineralität und strahlenden Zitrustöne herauszuarbeiten. Nach neun Monaten wurden die beiden Komponenten verschnitten und durften weitere zwei Monate reifen, bevor sie auf die Flasche gefüllt wurden.
