Vinification
There is a minimum interventionist approach to making this wine. The grapes are whole bunch pressed and lightly settled before natural fermentation occurs. We use a combination of 300l second-fill French oak barrels and 2500l foudré. The wine was matured on the lees for 10 months before bottling.
Vineyard: Reyneke Wines
The 2020 Chenin Blanc is a combination of grapes sourced from two adjacent vineyards. These vineyards are part of the Old Vine Project and hail from the early 1970’s and are farmed according to biodynamic principles.
