Ken Forrester
In 1993 hospitality industry veteran Ken Forrester and his wife Teresa purchased the historic Scholtzenhof estate nestled at the base of the Helderberg in Stellenbosch. Originally established in 1689 as Zandberg the property is one of the oldest wine farms in the Cape. Ken enlisted the help of his winemaker friend Martin Meinert in replanting and revitalizing the vineyards with an aim to craft a white wine that could rival any in the world! And so it was that Ken Forrester Vineyards was established with a focus on Chenin Blanc production.
Description
Typical character of Orange peel, lemon zest and Stone fruit. More sourer than sweet on the nose. On the palate, a soft sparkle (mousse) and a rich mouthfeel due to extended lees aging (18 months).
Food Pairing
Pairs beautifully with seafood dishes, grilled chicken, or vegetarian pizzas.
