Bellingham 'The Bernard Series' Old Vine Chenin Blanc, Coastal Region South Africa
Readers rated this wine:
Concentrated, lengthy, fleshy.
This consistently impressive Chenin Blanc, made from high altitude, gnarled bush vines, was aged in oak barrels.
A brilliant yellow wine it offers potent aromas of grilled pineapples and charred lemon peel, toasted vanilla and cumin, acacia, honey, beeswax and granny smith apples. A juicy entry on the palate leads to toast slathered in rich lemon curd, pineapples, spice, chamomile, and pomelo on the finish. It's a fleshy and supple wine with a snappy palate rounded off with a creamy texture.
Pair: roast chicken or turkey, smoked cheeses and creamy pastas.

Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb

Concentrated, juicy, poised.

A solid vintage, it is scented with yellow apples, pear puree, quince, honeysuckle and lemon meringue. Equally creamy on the palate it is juicy and concentrated and has toasted undertones. Excellent poise and style; a complete wine.
Pair: roast chicken or turkey, smoked cheeses and creamy pastas.

A brilliant yellow wine, potent with roasted hazelnuts and grilled lemons, yellow apples and quince, star fruit and honey with buttered toast. The palate is creamy and rich with impressive concentration; expect fleshy fruit and a supple weight. Spicy and zesty, long and lengthy.
