Description
This Chenin blanc was made from a certified heritage vineyard, planted in 1977 on Kliprug, a farm close to Mischa. Being an old vineyard, the yield is low but the quality is much higher than a young vineyard. The wine was made in an unwooded style to express as many natural fruit flavours as possible and to let the vineyard and fruit do the talking rather than the wood.
