Kloof Street Chenin Blanc 'Swartland' 2024

Following aromas of sun ripened pears and wet granite., the palate has a vibrant acidity balanced by a soft, round texture and some pithy character and finishes with a fresh minerality.

100% Chenin Blanc from two sustainably farmed , 46+ year-old dry land, bush vine Chenin vineyard parcels grown in the decomposed Granite soils of the Paardeberg.

Production Notes: Grapes are chilled in our cold room then pressed whole bunch and the juice is allowed to settle overnight. Minimal SO 2 is added and, as with all our wines, no further additions are made. The juice is then racked to tank (85%) and older French oak barrels (15%) for fermentation. Fermentation is with indigenous yeasts and lasts up to 6 weeks. The barrels are racked and blended with the tank fermented portion and then bottled.
