Solitude Chenin Blanc 2021

Tasting Notes
Analysis & Info

A pale straw colour with a bright golden tinge. Citrus like lime and spice aromas such as lemon pepper and cloves on the nose, as well as a lightly wooded elegance with a mineral flinty finish. The medium full palate is loaded with stone fruit and baked pear. Layered with great texture and ripe lemons, which culminate in a crisp acidity and lingering finish. Terroir driven wines to be enjoyed with a beautiful rebel on your side.

Note that this wine is EXCLUSIVELY available via Frogitt & Vonkel.

Other	The Solitary wolf roams the herd like a true rebel, looking for the best to feast on. Like a one-man wolf pack, bush vines stand alone in the dry summer months trying to hide from the extreme conditions. With the cool breeze from the ocean bringing some much-needed relief, the limited production of grapes results in small berries with concentrated aromas and flavour. The grapes are sourced from carefully managed, old bush vines in the Swartland region.

Food Suggestion	Being a rich and elegant wine, it will pair beautifully with spicy food particularly those containing some kind of fruit such as Cape Malay or other mild, fruity curries and Southeast Asian-inspired salads. Solitude Chenin Blanc’s mineral flinty finish is a perfect fit for mild cheeses like Caerphilly and white-rinded cheeses like Brie so long as they are not too ripe.
