2022 Granite Chenin Blanc, Mullineux

2022 Granite Chenin Blanc, Mullineux

From the Eikerlan vineyard on the Paardeberg, one of the highest altitude spots here, this is incredibly focussed and mineral, with notes of lemon pith and anis. So intense, precise, and long.

Tasting notes

Deep roots and old vines are the key to the quality of this dry-farmed Chenin Blanc from the Paardeberg. Grippy, stony and effortlessly concentrated, it has oatmeal, citrus and aniseed flavours, some subtle skin tannins and a finish that flirts successfully with austerity. Stunning stuff. 2024-30
