2023 Storm Point Chenin Blanc, Western Cape, South Africa
$16.00
This wine hails from multiple gnarly, bush vine sites in the Swartland on gentle sloping granitic, sandy soils. These soils serve as the life force for the wine and are predominantly between 20-30-years-old. A cool, controlled fermentation (with native yeast now for the second vintage) occurred in stainless steel and was left on its gross lees for six months. Stainless steel was chosen to encapsulate the freshness and vitality of the grapes. The wine was bottled unfined with a light sheet filtration and dosage of sulfur.
