Stellenbosch Church Chenin Blanc

Serve this wine with equally savoury delights. A plate of blanched asparagus, wafer-thin Parma ham shavings, and a dash of truffle oil will elevate the fruit in the wine. And to highlight the acidity, slice up some sweet, ripe melon.

The barrels are 100% French, mainly Damy, D&J’s Marcel Cadet and Taransaud 225 and 300 Litres (l/c), Maturation occurs at 11 months in second, third and fourth filled oak barrels.
