This has pure and exotic aromas of jackfruit, mangoes, lime curd and pineapple. So creamy and fruit-forward, with a medium body and excellent freshness. Supple and delicious. Drink now. Screw cap.

Caramel and honey nose leads into a rich but well held-together palate. Elegant crisp apples, peaches and baked pears all dance on the silky palate.

The 2023 Chenin Blanc Original comes from decomposed granite and sandstone soils, aged for eight to ten months on the lees. It has an appealing nose with scents of lemon curd, apricot and just a touch of almond. The palate is well balanced with a hint of lemon sherbet on the entry, a keen line of acidity, fine tension and a dry, lemongrass-tinged finish. This would work just as well as an apéritif. Very fine.
