Klippenkop Chenin Blanc

This Chenin Blanc fruit was sourced from 22 specially selected grape growing families in the Robertson wine valley. Vines are grown in a variation of soil types from the deep cool alluvial soils, red soils rich in lime to well weathered shade soils. The annual rainfall is only 280mm per annum. Our Chenin Blanc vines are planted on the riverbanks with a row direction from Northwest to Southeast to utilize the prevailing sea breeze. The sea breeze cools down the fruit, extends the ripening period and builds up concentrated flavours in the grapes. The average annual rainfall is supplemented by controlled drip irrigation from the Breede River.

An appealing light straw colour. Light with lovely ripe, attractive rounded fruit. Fresh floral nose and an exciting acid balance.
