Mulderbosch Chenin Blanc Steen Op Hout
Sold out
Founded in 1989, Mulderbosch is one of South Africa's foremost modern wine producers. Chenin Blanc, known locally as Steen, is the Cape's signature variety. South Africa has been cultivating it since the late 1600's and now has more acreage than the grape's homeland, France's Loire Valley! Chenin's great natural acidity and succulence on the palate allow it to make some of the tastiest wines in the world. With a delicate green golden appearance, Mulderbosch Chenin promises a fresh array of wonderful fruit aromas. Papaya, melon and limes jostle for attention aside freshly sliced Granny Smith apples and touches of oak spice. Sourced as it was from an array of mature vineyards across the Western Cape, the wine is richly layered with golden ripe fruit and finely balanced texture. The well poised finish and persistent length are hallmarks of this great grape. An incredibly versatile food wine — perfect for fish with lemon, chicken with cream sauce, salads, and spicy cuisines.
