Wildeberg Chenin Blanc 2023

The best spots in Paarl (of which this is typical of such terrior) for Chenin Blanc are the pockets of decomposed Granite (formed from then outcrop of Paarl Mountain) over and around the more widely found Sandstone.

Hand-harvested bush vine Chenin Blanc, wild fermented in seasoned barrel and left for aging for 12 months before bottling.
