Product information "Rudi Schultz Skeleton Bay Chenin Blanc 2022"
The Rudi Schultz Skeleton Bay Chenin Blanc already exudes an attractive bouquet of fragrant clover blossoms and subtle tropical notes when poured. Aromas that also permeate the fresh and soft palate, where they combine with lush nuances of pear and exotic tropical fruit to create a pleasure all along the line. A Chenin of remarkable balance!
The passionate surfer Rudi Schultz named his highly endowed Chenin Blanc after one of the world's best surfing beaches. Skeleton Bay (Skeleton Coast) is located on the Atlantic coast of Namibia and is known for the longest waves in the world. Recently, "surfing history" was written here when the Hawaiian surfer Koa Smith broke the world record and rode a 1.5 km long wave in one go at Skeleton Bay.

Das Traubengut für diesen hochdotierten Chenin Blanc wurde in den frühen Morgenstunden von mehr als 61 Jahre alten Rebstöcken handgelesen und bei Ankunft in der Kellerei am ganzen Bund gepresst. Der dabei gewonnene Saft wurde über Nacht ruhen gelassen und anschließend in 20 zuvorbelegten Burgunder-Eichenfässern bei geregelten 17°C vinifiziert. Nach Abschluss der alkoholischen Gärung reifte der Wein noch weitere neun Monate auf der Hefe, bevor er zum fertigen Genuss auf die Flasche gefüllt wurde.
