More information about Old Vines Chenin Blanc - Lievland

The barrel-aged Old Vines Chenin Blanc from the Cape South Coast wine-growing region presents itself in the glass with a bright platinum yellow. The first nose of the Old Vines Chenin Blanc caresses with notes of quince, grapefruit and sour cherries. The fruity components of the bouquet are joined by notes from barrel aging, such as further fruity-balsamic nuances.

The Lievland Old Vines Chenin Blanc delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with 3.8 grams of residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and thus this South African, despite all its dryness, enchants with the finest balance. Excellent flavor does not necessarily require sugar. Thanks to its pronounced acidity, the Old Vines Chenin Blanc reveals itself on the palate as exceptionally fresh and lively. The finish of this youthful white wine from the Cape South Coast wine-growing region, more precisely from Stellenbosch, finally impresses with a lovely aftertaste.

Vinification of the Lievland Old Vines Chenin Blanc
