Tasting profile
Structure: medium-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, dry
Jolandie Fouché's Chenin Blanc from old dryland bush vines on Paardeberg granite and Malmesbury clay in the Swartland, wild-fermented and matured about ten months in old oak and concrete. Textured and quietly intense: quince, yellow apple, peach and citrus peel with a flinty, savoury edge and tangy acidity, a wine that gains honeyed depth with a few years in bottle.
