Information about "Botanica Mary Delany Collection Chenin Blanc 2023"
The Botanica Mary Delany Collection Chenin Blanc 2023 stands as a true benchmark of South Africa's exceptional Chenins. On the palate, it reveals a rich, fruit-centric profile, harmonized by a balanced acidity. Its broad and structured mouthfeel is beautifully rounded, showcasing an indulgent silkiness alongside complex layers of ripe peaches, baked Braeburn apples, hay, and subtly integrated oak nuances. This highly esteemed Cape Chenin boasts an impressively velvety texture and remarkable elegance, making it an enduring icon of its kind.
Virginia Povall, the owner and winemaker, deliberately chose natural cork closures to minimize resource use and waste production. By avoiding capsule use, this initiative promotes sustainability and responsibly optimizes consumption alongside environmental protection, ensuring natural resources are preserved effectively.
Das Traubengut für diesen erstklassigen und hochdotierten Chenin Blanc aus den Citrusdal Bergen wurde handgelesen, entrappt und leicht angequetscht und fermentierte lediglich zu 50% in zuvor belegten Eichenfässern. Die andere Hälfte fermentierte in temperaturgeregelten Tanks aus Edelstahl. Nach neun Monaten in älterem Eichenholz, ist ein Wein von stiller Komplexität und nicht minderer Struktur.
