Lilly of the valley. Ripe pear, apricot and melon. Wet stone. That signature Chenin metallic note (typically referred to as “wet wool”, but that sounds drab and unappetizing, so I prefer to call it “Golden Fleece”.) Richly textured and vivacious. A touch of yuzu on the finish. From 40+ year old bush vines in Swartland. A nice treat & an incredible value.
