Information about "Rikus Neethling Chenin Blanc 2024"
The Rikus Neethling Chenin Blanc 2024 is a delightful expression of vibrant citrus and stone fruit notes, complemented by a unique creaminess atypical of unoaked whites. The nose reveals seductive layers of smooth lemon cream, orange biscuit cake, and preserved peaches alongside dried pineapple, delivering an exquisite aromatic blend. A hint of chamomile and orange blossom lingers delicately, adding a floral touch to the overall profile. Additionally, subtle nuances of salted white chocolate and a refined minerality reminiscent of crushed seashells finish the delightful experience.
In a dry style, this Chenin offers a refreshing, cucumber-like acidity, well-integrated alcohol, and a gentle viscosity that creates a soothing mouthfeel. It is a medium-bodied wine with good intensity, full flavor, and lasting length.
