Product information "AA Badenhorst Family Wines Klip Kop Chenin Blanc 2022"

The AA Badenhorst Family Wines Klip Kop Chenin Blanc is an exceptional Chenin Blanc from old vines that thrive on granitic soils, producing grapes of immense concentration. A stony, grippy and fresh white wine with a deep and complex flinty aromatic profile and delicious hints of passion fruit, peach and fynbos, accompanied by a cutting acidity, fine wood notes, a stunning texture as well as gorgeous minerality.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were hand-picked, kept refrigerated overnight and pressed the next morning on the whole bunch, with only the free-run juice being fed into an old barrel with a capacity of 1200 liters. The spontaneous (wild) fermentation, in which only the yeast naturally present in the environment and on the fruit started the fermentation, continued for several months. The wine spent the entire fermentation process on the coarse yeast and was bottled at the end of fermentation without filtering or fining.
