2006 Jean Daneel Wines Director's Signature Chenin Blanc (750ml) x 6 bottles - Provenance: Restaurant Mosaic Wine Cellar Collection
Today he has established himself as one of the top winemakers in the country and has achieved international acclaim for his outstanding wines. During his time at Buitenverwachting he won the Diners Club Winemaker of the Year in 1992. Jean then spent time at Morgenhof until 1999 but started making wines under his own label in ’97 – made on a Franschhoek property belonging to long-time friend, Gert Grobe. In 2005, he acquired property on the fringes of Napier and set up home, before building a cellar and planting experimental vineyards. The Jean Daneel label has blossomed, with the Directors Signature 2006 topping the Wine magazine Chenin Blanc Challenge in 2008. The Directors Signature '06 was compiled from four 100% new oak barrels, each containing juice from one of the different growing areas. The wine went on to spend a full 17 months in wood and there's no doubt that this has contributed to the wine's rich, buttery character. Total production was a mere 1 200 bottles. Platter Guide 4.5*
