Intro to Wild House Chenin Blanc –
Wild House Chenin Blanc is a bright, textural wine from old, unirrigated bush vines in the Coastal region grown on sandy soils over granite bedrock.
Full tasting note and wine making –
Wild House Chenin Blanc has much ripe peach and tropical fruit on the nose with fresh citrus notes, and it is honeyed and textured on the palate with crisp acidity and hints of honey dew melon and lychee leading to a bright, zesty finish with fresh lemony acidity.
Chenin Blanc is the backbone grape variety of South Africa and is the most profusely planted variety in that country and is closely associated to its wine-making identity. To capture the true sense of place and terroir, this wine was made from 100% unoaked Chenin Blanc fruit. It is fermented only in stainless steel tanks to ensure the freshness, character and liveliness of the wine is maintained. To tame some of this energy and add more complexity and depth to the final wine, it is kept it on its fine lees for approximately nine months. This also adds to the lush mouthfeel and keeps the wine fresher for longer.
The producer –
Wild House is a lifestyle range which reflects a place of raw energy, a weather-beaten hut exposed to the storm-swept slopes of the Cape’s mountains. Inspired by the ever-shifting views of the landscape and weather from each aspect of the house, we crafted this range of wines to reflect the land we call home.
Drink with –
It is a great partner to seafood, poultry and chargrilled vegetables.
