Force Celeste Chenin Blank from the Swartland

Force Celeste Chenin Blanc

OUR 100% CHENIN BLANC FROM SWARTLAND, SOUTH AFRICA, REFLECTS A SEASON OF BOTH ABUNDANCE AND CHALLENGE, STARTING WITH A WET WINTER THAT SUPPORTED HEALTHY VINE GROWTH AND ENDING WITH A HOT, DRY SUMMER THAT REQUIRED CAREFUL HAND SELECTION OF SUN-EXPOSED GRAPES.

HAND-PICKED, CHILLED, AND CAREFULLY SORTED, THE GRAPES FERMENTED WITH NATURAL WILD YEASTS AND MINIMAL INTERVENTION, WHILE A SMALL PORTION REMAINED ON THE SKINS TO BUILD TEXTURE. THE WINE MATURES FOR 8 MONTHS IN A COMBINATION OF CONCRETE TANKS AND OLD OAK BARRELS BEFORE BOTTLING UNFILTERED AND UNFINED. THE RESULT IS A FRESH, BALANCED WINE WITH BRIGHT FRUIT, SUBTLE TEXTURE, AND A PURE EXPRESSION OF THE VINEYARD.
