mehrere Informationen

The Rijks Private Cellar Chenin Blanc flows into the glass in a pale straw yellow colour and exudes beguiling aromas of white peaches, fresh winter melon and fragrant quinces as well as a delicate hint of butterscotch. These aromas, already sniffed by the nose, continue on the lush and incredibly creamy palate. Of great fullness, this noble drop ends with a well-balanced acidity in a long and lingering finish. Elegance, finesse, complexity and a tremendous fruit concentration distinguish this Chenin! This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were handpicked and then carefully pressed. 40% of the wine fermented in new French and Hungarian oak. The other 60% fermented in second and third barrels of French and Hungarian oak. 30% of the wine was fermented spontaneously and then matured in barrels for 11 months before being blended and bottled.
