Kleine Zalze Cellar Selection Chenin Blanc

The nose shows beautiful pear and fresh citrus, particularly grapefruit, perhaps kumquat. There are musky herbal notes present here too, difficult to define, something like rooibos. As always, the wine has a striking sense of purity. That classic Skurfberg saline vigour underpins the whole palate. This vintage is medium-bodied yet rich in flavour, with good length and balance.

Subtle tropical fruit dominated by ripe yellow peaches, quince, guava and white pear on the nose. Elegant and well-balanced structure with loads of tropical fruit on the pallet and a fresh and crisp acidity followed by a lingering aftertaste.

The fruit profile remains faithful to the varietal – stone fruits, succulent peach, apricot, and zesty lime interplay seamlessly with hints of melon, green apple, and elegant white pear. The integrated, slightly robust structure lingers harmoniously, underscoring the symphony of flavours. This Chenin Blanc elegantly marries its character with newfound richness, making it a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking a nuanced and captivating experience.

A barrel-fermented wine that rewards with a medley of apricot, peach and soft tropical flavours. The integrated palate showcases rounded oak integration and a fresh lime zest with mineral notes on the finish.
