The Juno Chenin Blanc presents itself in a crisp fruit-driven style with fragrant aromas of juicy apricots, green guavas and dried pears. On the palate, this fresh Chenin trumps with wonderful length and finishes in a pleasantly dry style with a fresh and well-balanced acidity.

The grapes were hand-picked in the early hours of the morning to ensure that the fruit-driven aromas and flavours were preserved in the berries at cool morning temperatures. Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes were cold-crushed, with only the free-run juice used in the rest of the production process. Using selected yeast cultures, fermentation took place at a cool-regulated 12°C in stainless steel tanks. After completion of the alcoholic fermentation, the wine matured on the lees for another two months.
