Cocoa Hill Chenin Blanc

Please note: Award stickers are applied at the producer's discretion and may not be present on all bottles.

The wine is made with Chenin Blanc grapes from the Stellenbosch and Voor Paardeberg regions, from many different microclimate in order to obtain various characteristics and flavour profiles. Each batch was individually fermented in stainless steel tanks for approximately 14 days. Flavour and style specific yeast were used to obtain the desired fruit and aroma characteristics. After fermentation, the wine was left on the full lees four months. Battonage was performed weekly to improve the fullness and texture of the wine.

The Cocoa Hill Chenin Blanc is a delectably chic version of what used to be South Africa's Cinderella variety. The vines grow in the decomposed red granite soils of Cocoa Hill – a hilltop in the folds of the Stellenbosch Mountain, superbly positioned in prime South African terroir.
