2022 Old Vine Chenin Blanc, Brookdale Estate, Paarl
A brilliant Chenin from the young Kiara Scott. From old vine Chenin Blanc, planted in 1985, which is grown on decomposed shale and granite. It offers restrained aromatics of pear skin, honeycomb and golden citrus with just a hint of toast. The palate is deep and concentrated. Yellow apples, kumquat and peaches sing above the chalky texture and fine, crystalline finish.
