Miles Mossop Introduction Chenin Blanc

Miles Mossop The Introduction Chenin Blanc is an elegant white wine from the Coastal region of South Africa that highlights the versatility and finesse of the Chenin Blanc grape. Miles Mossop places particular emphasis on precision craftsmanship: each grape is harvested at the perfect point of ripeness and carefully guided through the natural winemaking process to create expressive, fresh and balanced wines - wines that impress with personality.

For this cuvée, the grapes are harvested by hand at different times to optimally preserve both the fresh stone fruit notes and the riper yellow fruit notes of Chenin Blanc - without losing acidity or freshness. The fruit comes from old, unirrigated bush and trellis vineyards in Stellenbosch (84%) and the Swartland (16%). 80% of the wine fermented in stainless steel tanks, 18% in old French oak barrels and 2% in a concrete egg. After around three weeks of fermentation on natural yeasts, the wine matured on the lees for six months before being blended and bottled.

In the glass, the Introduction Chenin Blanc has a brilliant, pale straw yellow color. The nose is complex, with aromas of white flowers, yellow peach, pineapple and citrus notes. Fresh yellow fruit opens up on the palate, complemented by grapefruit and stone fruit notes. The mid-palate is creamy, clearly structured and leads to a textured, slightly tart finish with a lively freshness.

This wine is ideal on its own or as an accompaniment to light poultry and fish dishes, Mediterranean dishes or summer salads. Served at 8-10 °C, it develops its aromas to optimum effect. Suitable for early consumption, it will continue to develop over 3 to 5 years.

Harmonious notes of honey and floral tones complete the bouquet. On the palate, the Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc is dry, complex and pleasantly soft, with a stimulating minerality and aromatic depth. The finish is wonderfully fresh and fruity.The Chenin Blanc from the Blaauwklippen Valley, which shimmers in a soft greenish yellow, was mostly matured in concrete eggs and a very small proportion in old oak barrels. Meryl Weaver awards 91 points (4.5 out of 5 stars) for the Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2020 in John Platter's Wine Guide. Her overall verdict: "Ripe pear & stone fruit with soft, creamy texture from two old vineyards (1966 & 1978). Fermented/matured in concrete egg & 15% in old oak, allowing soft fruit to shine in the softer, rounder 2020."2018 was the first vintage of this white wine. Enjoy it with poultry, fish dishes (salmon) or a fresh seafood salad.
