The Beyerskloof Chenin Blanc/Pinotage blend is a unique and innovative wine, bringing together two of South Africa’s most iconic grapes: Chenin Blanc and Pinotage. Good primary fruit with hints of citrus and tropical fruits. Elegant, crisp entrance. Refreshingly dry and perfectly balanced. A long lingering finish with resonating fruit and acidity.
The Pinotage grapes were picked at an early stage to ensure an abundance of sweet red berry aromas. Aer crushing the grapes, the juice was immediately drained and separated from the skins to give the wine its distinct colour. The juice fermented for 20 days at 11 ̊C. Aer fermentation, a fuller-bodied and more structured Chenin Blanc was sourced from the Villiersdorp region and blended with the Pinotage.
