Babylonstoren Chenin Blanc 750ml
A lithe, dry summer white, it's hard not to love this Chenin Blanc. Our winemakers aged a total of 10% of the chenin blanc blend in Nomblot cement eggs and terracotta clay amphorae, resulting in a light and crisp dry wine with refreshing notes of guava, pineapple and winter melon flavours, rounded off with a hint of fresh gooseberries and Packham pear undertones.
Tasting Note
Intriguing white peach and ripe pineapple fragrance with underlying lemon curd, which makes this wine hard to resist.
Silky smooth entrance reveals many layers of supple fruit handled with care to retain the intrinsic chenin personality at its best. Beautifully balanced with a delicious streak of acidity which brings freshness and focus to the palate, making this ideal for summer drinking.
Food Pairing
Complements seafood dishes, roast chicken with thyme, composite summer salads, seasonal quiches and gravadlax.
Chilled, 11–12°C (51–53°F).
