Information about "Sijnn White 2024"
The Sijnn White 2024 is a marvel of craftsmanship, showcasing the unique terroir of Malgas, situated along the Breede River, South Africa's sole First-Growth Appellation. Its vivid, shimmering lemon hue invites exploration. On the nose, it bursts with fresh intensity, revealing enticing aromas of lemon zest intertwined with the warmth of sun-kissed vineyard stones. Subtle spicy notes, hints of apricot bitterness, and a salty nuttiness add complexity. The palate is electric and zesty, offering a rich tapestry of fruit balanced by lively acidity. This brilliantly structured wine promises an exceptionally long finish, developing remarkable depth and complexity with age while retaining its mineral core.
Handpicked in the early morning, grapes are expertly sorted to ensure only the coolest fruit reaches the cellar. 60% are pressed whole in a basket press, while the remainder are gently crushed and then pressed. Fermentation occurs with indigenous yeasts in French oak barrels (400- and 700-liters), 10% new wood, lasting 10 months on the lees, imparting texture and balance. Lightly fined, unfiltered, and bottled by hand.
