Mullineux Chenin Blanc Granite Old Vines Swartland 2021 750 ML

Mullineux Granite Chenin Blanc Old Vines Swartland 2021 is a white wine made from Chenin Blanc grapes grown in the decomposed granite soils of Paardeberg in Swartland, South Africa. The grapes come from 44-year-old bush vines that are dry farmed and sustainably grown. The 2021 vintage was cool, slow, and balanced, which contributed to the wine’s extra texture and mouthfeel. Some say the wine is complex and elegant, with a floral nose and aromas of white peach, lime, and honey. Others describe it as having a flinty nose with stone fruit and citrus aromatics, and a palate with notes of grapefruit and cinnamon-spiced apples. The wine also has a natural acidity that balances out the texture and mid-palate.
