Carinus Rooidraai Chenin Blanc

Carinus Rooidraai Chenin Blanc is from a Swartland vineyard planted on iron-rich granite in 1981. Matured in old 300l French oak barrels for 10 months. Exotic aromatics of mandarin, fynbos and potpourri. On the palate the fruit purity is shy at first but reveals itself beautifully after time in the glass. The wine really starts to shine after a year or 2 in bottle revealing a soft, round palate with a long, mouth-watering finish.
