Note di degustazione
Made from Chenin Blanc and Palomino, the 2022 Old Vine Series Skerpioen displays aromas of wax melon with hints of sea spray and lemon skin before offering a dusty floral essence. Medium-bodied and with excellent mineral tension, the palate bursts to life with energetic acidity, showing layers of freshness and complexity before ending with a lively, food-friendly finish. Only 7,400 bottles were produced of this gorgeous wine.

Chenin Blanc and Palomino from Swartland – St Helena Bay. 28 hl/ha. Ageing 12 months in old acacia wood and oak foudre. Fragrant in a floral and faintly herbal way, combining notes of blossoms and foliage. Whiffs of sapling, camomile and green apple meet on the palate delivering a slightly textured, saline and persistent stone finish. Pretty now but with a real sense of a long way to go. (MF)
