Award Winner Bin Number: 013129
Up to 2 cases / 28 bottles in stock

This is a really world class expression of the Chenin Blanc grape.

Barrel fermented and aged, this wine has biscuity, toasty flavours, and great acidity which gives a freshness and depth. There is a touch of residual sweetness, which means it is wonderful with spicy food, especially Thai or Chinese.

    Another fine vintage for this concentrated off-dry speciality … (2006 vintage) Jancis Robinson, The Financial Times, 8 December 2007
    Broad and powerful – you really notice the oak that also gives it a vanilla tinge. (2006 vintage) Victoria Moore, The Guardian, 12 January 2008
    Its smoky, vanilla oak will meld well with the smokiness of the ham, and its off-dry character finds a match in the sweetness of the cooked peppers. (2006 vintage) Victoria Moore, The Guardian (Weekend magazine), 19 July 2008
