TN : Zevenwacht Chenin Blanc 2009, Berrel Fermented, Stellenbosch, South Africa

A combination of old vines, in excess of 25 years and newly planted vines in the Banhoek valley, was used to produce this wine.

50% of this wine was tank fermented at a cool fermentation temperature, hovering around 13 degrees. The other 50% was barrel fermented and aged for six months on the lees to add to the complexity and rich mouth feel of the wine. After six months, the wine was blended together and did a further extended lees contact on the fine lees. The residual sugar was 3.2 grammes per litre, the TA was 6.6 grammes per litre, and the pH was 3.2. The finishes wine was bottled under screwcap.
