Black Pearl Chenin Blanc 2018
Country: South Africa
Winery: Black Pearl
Varietal: Chenin Blanc
UPC Code: 858441006729
Tasting Notes:
A lively wine with zippy flavors of creamy pineapple, pink lady apples and melon. The wine has a lovely texture with a long finish and enough acid to keep it really fresh and vibrant.
Awards, Reviews, And Other Notes:
4 Stars 2019 Platter’s South African Wine Guide
Crisp and fresh, unwooded 18 (89 pts) from Swartland hugely over-delivers, its peach and chamomile perfume leading to citrus and stone fruit flavors in abundance, lingering on finish.
Winemaker Notes:
Chenin Blanc is harvested from a farm which borders Agter Paarl in Wellington, from dry farmed vines of 20 to 40 years old. This wine should be drunk within 3-4 years of the vintage.
