Product Description:
The 2021 Plat'bos Chenin Blanc is bright and mineral-driven with aromas of lime candy and lemon meringue. In the glass, it shines with yellow apple aromatics. The wine is medium-to-full bodied and boasts an impressive 11.5% alcohol that sways with finesse and balance. The Chenin continues to gain richness and finishes with a delicate mineral essence and electric energy fit for food. Bravo!

Vinifikation
In the vineyard, David & Nadia strive for organic farming, and in the cellar, they work as naturally as possible. After all, it's all about the soil and the vineyards. They believe in a pure, fresh, and natural style, where location and soil, with minimal viticultural influence, are at play. The Plat'bos was planted in 1981 right next to the Skaliekop vineyard on decomposed granite. On the Paardebosch farm, this vineyard contributes to both the main Chenin Blanc and the Aristargos and will continue to do so. David & Nadia have been farming this vineyard since the winter of 2013, and it is a pillar in the granite approach for their white wines. It is harvested in the second half of January and is one of the earliest Chenin Blanc vineyards they work with, planted on a north-facing slope. Plat'bos is the fourth wine to qualify for the Old Vine Project (OVP) seal. The grapes were picked and pressed as whole bunches. The juice was minimally sulfured and chilled before spontaneous fermentation. Subsequently, the Plat'bos underwent malolactic fermentation and matured in old 300-liter oak barrels.
