Darling Cellars CHENIN BLANC Old Bush Vines 2023

Forge Mill's Bush Vine Chenin Blanc is the perfect everyday wine that offers uncomplicated quality for the novice and connoisseur alike. Intense tropical fruit flavours balanced by a crisp fresh finish.

This is the entry level Chenin Blanc, one of three made by Kaapzicht (Cape View) which is named after its stunning views over Cape Town and Table Mountain.

Named after the old mill houses that were once famous landmarks in the Valley, this Chenin Blanc features fleshy peach and pineapple aromas supported by a bright burst of citrus and some leesy intrigue

Slow Chenin Blanc is not fermented with fast-acting, or 'aroma-enhancing’ commercially selected yeast. The grapes do not take three weeks to get from vineyard to bottle. It is crafted the wild way – old vine fruit, fermented with wild yeast found naturally on the grapes…not in a packet. This magical transformation takes at least six months.
