Description
A still white from South Africa, 14% ABV, 100% Chenin Blanc, produced by Cape Best. A Chenin Blanc that demonstrates how French oak can enhance a quintessential South African grape. On the nose, the French oak lends style and class to this quintessential South African grape. On the palate, the wine is deliciously full, with notes of white pear, quince, and green pineapple that combine with a spicy complexity. A wine that reflects the passion of Gary and Kathy Jordan, who have been producing world-class wines since 1993.
