Discover a truly exceptional South African Chenin Blanc with the Never Been Asked to Dance 2024. This wine is a beautiful tribute to its heritage, crafted from old vine Chenin Blanc grapes planted in 1956 on a decomposed granite slope in Paarl.
This Paarl Chenin Blanc undergoes meticulous vineyard sorting and is then fermented naturally in older 600L Stockinger barrels. This careful, hands-on approach results in a wine with remarkable purity and character.
On the nose, expect enticing aromas of pineapple, apple, and subtle fynbos, with a hint of toasted oatmeal. The palate reveals a striking natural freshness and grip, a signature of the granitic soils. It’s a beautifully layered wine with a distinct saline core that adds to its elegance and complexity.
While this Paarl wine is wonderfully approachable in its youth, its structure and depth promise to reward those who cellar it for years to come. Experience the true essence of old vine Chenin Blanc.
