Kottabos Chenin Blanc

Kottabos is a Greek drinking game of the highest skill – where after many glasses of wine one elegantly flings the leftover lees from naturally unfiltered wine toward predetermined targets in the room with fellow drinking friends. In this case, ‘Kottabos’ is a small side project from Reenen Borman of Boschkloof in which he experiments with more adventurous winemaking techniques on grapes grown in the Polkadraai Hills. 60% whole bunch fermented for 6 days then pressed and sent to old barrels to complete fermentation. 11 months on the lees gives it a rounded mid-palate.
