Morgenhof Chenin Blanc 2010 Simonsberg-Stellenbosch, South Africa


This wine is a product of 100% Chenin Blanc grapes from old vines, maturation took place for 10 months in French oak with alcohol coming in at 14%. Attractive and complex bouquet of apple, grapefruit, lemon zest, honey, floral and herbaceous notes. On the palate, medium body, more citrus flavour than sweet fruit flavour and lively acidity. The finish is long, refreshing with citrus fruit and a touch of honey which makes it almost creamy. Very enjoyable and good value, score 88 points.

This wine was purchased January 21, 2012 LCBO New Release at $16.95
