Product information "Morgenhof Chenin Blanc 2017"
The Morgenhof Chenin Blanc pampers the nose and caresses the palate with aromas and notes of refreshing pear, apricot and citrus fruit - perfectly integrated with the subtle nuances of fine French oak. The wine ends in a long finish with hints of dried fruit and a balancing creaminess.

The grapes for Morgenhof Chenin Blanc were first destemmed and lightly crushed, after which the mash was immediately cooled down to 8ºC in stainless steel tanks and left to rest for 48 hours. The juice was mixed with selected yeast cultures in stainless steel tanks, which started the fermentation process. At the beginning of fermentation, the wine was transferred to wooden barrels, where it finished fermentation after 14-21 days. After partially completed malolactic fermentation, the wine matured for 9 months in 225 l French oak barrels.
