The Tin Mine White Blend

Delicious with full flavoured grilled fish, sumptuous lobster and avocado salad or creamy chicken dishes.

The vineyards for the Tin Mine White all come from our Zevenwacht property on the Polkadraai Hills ward of Stellenbosch. The soils are decomposed granite with varying amount of structure and clay in the subsoils and the slopes are South to South West facing with altitudes between 200-350m.

10 months, 25% 1st Fill, 20% Second Fill, 55% Seasoned oak

After whole bunch pressing, the juice was settled and racked to a combination of 500l French Oak barrels for fermentation. The wine spent 10 months barrel ageing on the lees for a richer mouth feel and underwent partial malolactic fermentation.

Zevenwacht is a Stellenbosch wine estate with a 300-year history and vineyards across its maritime home farm and Zevenrivieren on the Helshoogte Pass. Known for Chenin Blanc, Pinotage, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and the Tin Mine blends, the estate combines regional character with a strong focus on vineyard-led winemaking.
