Description

Ken Forrester Old Vine Reserve Chenin Blanc is a celebrated white wine from South Africa's renowned Stellenbosch region. Made from grapes sourced from ancient, dry-farmed vineyards that are over 30 years old, this wine showcases the remarkable depth and complexity that old vines can produce. Ken Forrester, often referred to as the "King of Chenin," is known for his commitment to quality and sustainable viticulture. This Chenin Blanc reflects the terroir of Stellenbosch, offering a beautiful balance of fruit, acidity, and minerality.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Bright straw yellow with golden hues.

NOSE:
Aromas are vibrant and expressive, featuring notes of ripe stone fruits like peach and apricot, along with citrus notes of lemon and lime. Hints of honey, almond, and a touch of floral jasmine contribute to its aromatic complexity, with underlying minerality adding depth.

TASTE:
Full-bodied and rich, the palate is filled with flavors of ripe pear, quince, and tropical fruits, complemented by a zesty acidity. The wine has a creamy mouthfeel, thanks to partial oak aging, which adds layers of richness and subtle spice. There are also hints of butterscotch and toasted nuts that emerge, providing a luxurious texture.

FINISH:
The finish is long and refreshing, with lingering notes of citrus zest and a touch of minerality that keeps the wine vibrant.

Food Pairing

This Chenin Blanc is incredibly versatile and pairs well with a range of dishes:

Grilled seafood, such as prawns or fish, with citrus or herb marinades
Roast chicken with herbs and lemon
Creamy pasta dishes like fettuccine Alfredo or carbonara
Asian cuisine, particularly dishes with ginger or soy sauce, like sushi or stir-fried vegetables
Charcuterie boards featuring soft cheeses, nuts, and dried fruits
Light curries or dishes with a hint of spice
