2025 Lievland Vineyards Chenin Blanc Old Vines

Lievland Vineyards' Chenin Blanc Old Vines is made from grapes sourced from vineyards in the Paarl region. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately destemmed and pressed in the vinification cellar. The juice is left to rest under refrigeration for approximately 24 hours to allow the coarser components to settle. Following this, the clean juice undergoes temperature-controlled (15°C) alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. After 2 weeks, the young wine is partially transferred to clean stainless steel tanks and partially to used oak barriques, with the addition of specially selected yeasts. After several months of aging, the wine is blended, clarified, filtered, and bottled.

The Chenin Blanc Old Vines from Lievland Vineyards is fresh and bright in the glass, with a light straw-yellow color. On the nose, aromas of citrus fruit, melon, peach, and a hint of beeswax. On the palate, notes of lemon peel, apple, pineapple, and a hint of coconut and almonds, accompanied by a fresh finish with beautiful acidity.
