KWV Cape Full Cream (750ml) x 3 bottles - Provenance: Restaurant Mosaic Wine Cellar Collection
Chenin through the lense of a sherry-style wine. The neutral base wine was produced from Chenin Blanc and Colombard grapes and partially fortified with neutral wine spirits. Following inoculation with yeast, it was left for 12 months before being introduced into the Solera system for maturation. In preparation for bottling, the wine was blended with sweet Jerepigo to achieve the desired sugar level. 1 year in 500 litre barrels and 5 - 6 years in 1 800 litre barrels in the Solera system. The fruit is complemented by marzipan and caramel on the soft, juicy palate with a lingering, nutty persistence. Lots of complexity on the palate, those mixed dried fruits and nuts again, but a caramel richness to the sweet flavor that adds another layer. Even if you don’t normally drink sweet wine, this one has enough freshness to stop it being cloying. And the spirit is so well integrated, it comes across as a lovely, warming factor.
