A crowd-pleasing Chenin Blanc for any occasion! The Swartland region of South Africa is teeming with winemakers who have access to very old vines, some well over 70 years, and are making incredible wines as a result. This region just about an hour north of Cape Town is rapidly gaining recognition and critical acclaim. Terre Brûlée comes from winemakers Tania and Vincent Carême. Vincent, of Domaine Vincent Carême in Vouvray, fell in love with the region and brings his expertise and techniques from the Loire Valley to Swartland in this flagship bottling. Passionate about Chenin Blanc he produces several styles of the varietal and firmly believes that the quality of the wine is determined in the vineyard. From dry-farmed vineyards, this 100% Chenin Blanc is crafted with the same methods and precision as his French wines; whole bunch pressing, nature yeast fermentation, and a minimal intervention approach in the cellar. Golden yellow in color it opens with a fragrant bouquet of quince with hints of pear, papaya, and honeysuckle. On the palate, this wine is rounded and generous in bodied with fresh vibrant acidity. The mouthfeel is very well balanced. Flavors of golden pear and ginger blend with notes of minerality that all come together on a crisp finish. |
