Product Description:
The wine has a distinct aroma of yellow apples, kiwis, and pineapple, as well as notes of green melon and lime. The wine is bursting with fresh fruit flavors. On the palate, the wine lingers with a zesty citrus flavor and a long, mineral finish.

Vinifikation The grapes for the Raats Original Chenin Blanc come partly from vines growing on weathered granite and partly from vines growing on Table Mountain sandstone. The grapes from the two different soil types were fermented separately. The grapes from weathered granite thus bring the typical chalky and mineral notes to the wine, while the grapes from the sandstone contribute plenty of tropical fruit and structure to the wine. The juice was cold-settled for 2-3 days and then cold-fermented (14º - 16ºC) in stainless steel tanks. Finally, the Chenin Blanc matured on its lees for 6 months before being bottled for enjoyment. No wood was used in this production process.
