Voor Paardeberg & Stellenbosch, South Africa — 100% Chenin Blanc
Aromas of ripe pear and yellow orchard fruit over mineral notes of wet stone and freshly rained soil. The palate is generous and mouth-filling yet balanced, finishing with a long streak of lime zest. Partial malolactic fermentation and ageing in old French oak and amphora add breadth without muting freshness. Pair with soft cheeses, charcuterie, Malaysian spices, white fish, Korean noodles, barbecued pork, or sweet-and-sour Southeast Asian cuisine. Old bush vines and mixed soils bring depth and tension, while restrained cellar work preserves clarity and structure.
