Chenin Blanc is a variety that is all about texture and acidity. A great food wine that delivers a huge length of flavours with a mineral backbone.
Grapes from the Morrison Vineyard were whole bunch pressed directly to barrel, fermented naturally using the vineyard yeasts, all in older French oak.
A wine with refreshing acidity, delicate fruit flavours, some savoury complexity and a long backbone of taut freshness. The wine has a supple texture throughout that is derived from extended barrel ageing.
Matured for just over 16 month on lees prior to bottling. Dry.
I enjoyed the wine in so far as it is well rounded - the taste of black fruit evident - not sure about the liquorice though. All in all for the price a pleasant easy drinking wine.
Super ripe very smooth dry red, with just a hint of Cherries in that Italian style and You are able to drink this wine with or without food, Very good value at $20.
We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.
