mehrere Informationen

The Waterkloof Circumstance Chenin Blanc scents the nose bewitchingly of ripe stone fruit and fine floral notes as well as a hint of honey and sage in the background. The palate convinces with fantastic length and a wonderfully creamy and warm start, followed by nuances of ripe fruit on the middle palate, which end with a gentle acidity in a pleasant finish.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes for this Chenin Blanc have been pressed all over the bunch to ensure that the juice can be extracted in the gentlest possible way. The juice was left to rest for 24 hours, after which it was transferred into 600 l barrels. The naturally occurring yeast cultures, also called "wild yeast", started the fermentation process. This led to a longer fermentation phase with a slower release of the aromas. The fermentation lasted for 4 months, after which the wine spent another 6 months on the yeast.
