Intellego Chenin Blanc 2020

Where: Swartland, South Africa
Grapes: Chenin Blanc
Body: Medium
Category: White Wine

Peach, apple, and stone fruit with a savory undertone. 

The fruit was hand-harvested and whole-bunch pressed with full solids to old 500L French foudres, where it fermented spontaneously. The wine sits sur lie, adding texture but also retaining tension to the final wine, and ages on the gross lees for 11 months. The wine was racked from barrel to tank and bottled without fining or filtration and only a small amount of SO2 added at bottling.
