2022 Chenin Blanc
2022 Chenin Blanc
100% from our home vineyard Treeton Estate. Being our first ever estate wine hand reared by some pretend viticulturists. With 2022 being a relatively warm year we’ve hit awesome levels of ripeness with this Chenin, allowing us to make our classic textural and rich Chenin. Partial malolactic fermentation combined with the use of our favourite toy - an 1800L Slovenian Foudre.
Yellow stone fruits, green apple zip, nectarine skins on the palate with a saline twist and dried herb notes. Matches up really well with any medium-full flavour foods, cheese and good times.
Sourced from the Yallingup hills. Whole bunch pressed to a mix of new (25%) and old (1+2 year old) French barriques, wild fermentation and a small amount of malolactic fermentation before winter set in.
Made with Vouvray in mind, on the nose it presents lemon wood, brioche and a hint of brine, the palate is lush and rich from 6 months of battonage before being pulled into line by a lime rind acidity and the saline nature of the varietal. Fantastic match with chicken or white meats also richer seafoods.
