Regular price $162.00
A wine that is evergreen in our books – not only does Stellenrust Chenin Blanc not disappoint any crowd, it’s a fantastic everyday drinking bottle with its previous vintage highly rated (whopping 96pts!) by Decanter Wines of the Year 2021! Tropical, fruity and aromatic, this Chenin Blanc does not skimp on its layers with lime, papaya, pineapple and hints of honeysuckle. Minerally and full-bodied, expect infusions of peach and grapefruit flavours, citrus, pear and green apple. This gem is the result of carefully handled natural fermentation from wild yeast which took 3 months. Gorgeously pairs with fresh summer salads and garlic cilantro shrimp tacos!
