Gabrielskloof The Landscape Elodie Chenin Blanc 2023

“This wonderfully ageworthy Chenin Blanc comes from the same five sites in the Swartland as it has since its maiden vintage in 2015. Barrel-fermented with full malolactic, it has amazing grip and minerality, with thatch, nutmeg and aniseed aromas, honey, baking spice and tarte tatin flavours and palate-cleansing acidity. 2022-28” 96 Points – Tim Atkin MW

All fruit was whole bunch pressed and 100% wild fermented in different-sized clay amphorae, as well as 400- and 500L older French barrels. The wine spent ten months on its lees before blending and bottling. Light golden in colour, with subtle aromas of apricot and white peach coupled with layers of almond, orange blossom and herbs. The palate is full-bodied with great natural acidity and freshness, typical of old vine Chenin.
