- Winemaking Notes
Two components of Chenin worth noting are: Firstly, the 1.7% Chenin made by drying the grapes in the sun for a week, before pressing and then fermenting. The component does add a small amount of residual sugar to the wine -but it primarily adds to the generosity of the flavour spectrum. The second notable component of 3.7% skin contact adds texture and structure to the wine. Both components are utilized to add appeal in terms of its adaptability with food and food enjoyment.
- Food Pairing
This is a multi-faceted food wine which will complement an array of dishes from seafood pasta to salad niçoise; grilled fish to lemon basted chicken.
