Inspector Péringuey Chenin Blanc - Jordan

Varietal: Chenin Blanc 100%.

The name of this Chenin Blanc pays homage to Louis Albert Péringuey, a 19th-century Western Cape vineyard inspector who led the fight against phylloxera and oversaw the importation of American rootstocks.

On the nose, French oak adds style and class to this magical grape. Mouth deliciously full with white pear, quince and green pineapple meeting with spicy complexity.

Pairings: Lean fish, lightly spiced foods and mild, soft cheeses.

Cap: Screw | Alc 14% | RS1,8 g/l | Total Acid 6,1 g/l | pH 3,43.

Origin

Wine of Origin Stellenbosch, South Africa.

In the vineyard
