L'AVENIR PROVENANCE CHENIN BLANC 2022
THE VINTAGE
The 2022 vintage kick-started with ideal Winter conditions. Late rains contributed to
even growth, providing an excellent foundation for the crop. The season was cool with moderate weather conditions during harvest, slowing down ripening and allowing the vines to develop impressive fruit intensity.
PROVENANCE CHENIN BLANC 2022
WINE OF ORIGIN STELLENBOSCH
FOOD PAIRINGS
With bright acidity, concentrated fruit and a distinctive spicy undertone, this is a remarkably versatile food wine. Enjoy it with grilled fish, spicy prawns or mild curries.
A crisp and delicate expression of Stellenbosch Chenin Blanc. A blend of French oak matured and unwooded Chenin Blanc from old vineyards. The wine presents a fine balance of natural acidity, bruised apple, white peach and citrus notes with a touch of roasted almonds.
