An Italian wine maker - Daniele Lenuzza: Making amazing wines from SA grapes in his unique style.....A must try!

North of Cape Town, where open landscapes give way to rolling hills, lies the enchanting Swartland, framed by the towering Paardeberg Mountains. Beneath the warmth of the African sun, resistant old bush vines thrive in diverse soils, producing grapes of remarkable character. Our Old Bush Vine Chenin Blanc, rooted in the granite-rich soils of Paardeberg, offers a fresh, modern expression. Aromas of citrus and ripe fruit lead to a well-balanced palate, layered with tropical notes, vibrant acidity, and rounded complexity from concrete egg aging. A clean, mineral-driven finish completes this distinctive wine. 13 months (70% Concrete Egg, 30% Stainless steel)

Tasting Notes: A bright, contemporary expression of the varietal. Aromas of citrus offer a remarkable freshness and secondary fumè aromas arise. The palate reveals tropical fruit notes exhibiting a rounded complexity attributed to ageing in concrete. It has a well-balanced structure and a notable acidity and verticality that enhance its overall profile. A clean, sapid, long, mineral-driven finish. Vibrant and expressive.
