SAAM The Collaboration Series Fairtrade Chenin Blanc 2024

Peach, pear, and tropical notes are all prominent on the very generous nose. The palate is rich, yet fresh with hints of citrus and lychee.

The grapes were sourced, and hand harvested from bushvines in the Agter- Paarl area. Soil consists of decomposed granite which perserves the wine’s natural acidity and aging potential. This block does not have irrigation and relies solely on winter rainfall.

Harvested early morning in the beginning of February, the grapes for this wine followed in the process of destemming and juice extraction with no skin contact given. Great care was taken to ensure only clear, free run juice was used for fermentation. The wine was aged on the lees for three months to ensure complexity and improve the palate.

Ready to be enjoyed now with the potential to age for further three years

This wine will pair well with most fish and poultry dishes and is an ideal match for spicy curry. Best served chilled.
