Winery: Black Pearl
Varietal: Chenin Blanc

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:
John Platter Guide 4 stars
Outrageously good value. Delights with upfront citrus aromas leading to tropical fruit on the palate. Lovely salty minerality keeps interedt going to the finish. Unwooded Swartland fruit.
90 points Decanter
88 points The Wine Advocate
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.
