2015 Keermont Riverside Chenin Blanc (750ml) x 3 bottles - Provenance: Restaurant Mosaic Wine Cellar Collection
Planted in 1971, Keermont's Riverside Chenin Blanc is the oldest vineyard on the farm. Soils on the banks of the upper Blaauwklippen River, in which the vines are planted, vary from sandy alluvial plains with river stone to red clay loam as one moves away from the river. This patchy old vineyard, at an elevation of 250m, delivers very low yields of incredible quality fruit year in and year out. Like the old vines from which it is made, this wine has great complexity and character with quiet intensity. All grapes used in producing our wines are grown on Keermont Vineyards. Small parcels of grapes are selected according to optimal ripeness and harvested by hand. The grapes are vinified gently and naturally following traditional techniques. This wine was fermented in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels and then spent a further 12 months maturing on the lees. Bottling is carried out by hand without filtration. Only 1994 bottles of this wine was produced. Tim Atkin MW 93/100
