Lourensford Chrysalis 2017

R333.00

Region: Helderberg

Tasting note:

The wine is layered with fragrant aromas and exotic flavours. Asparagus and green fig aromas first appear on the nose infused with spices of clove and hints of cinnamon followed by butterscotch, white peach and pear aromas. With every sip more and more flavours are exposed hinting towards roasted pineapple, lemongrass and rooibos and ever so slightly wild buchu, saffron, ginger and also black truffles. There are hints of wood aged characters but no visible oak

Established by Governor Willem Adriaan van der Stel in 1709, Lourensford has a proud history as a world-class fruit farm. Fortunately, the winemaking tradition was revived when well-known Cape business man, Dr Christo Wiese purchased the Estate in 1998. Situated at Somerset West, the estate covers a remarkable 4,000 hectares, ranging almost all the way up Hederberg Mountain. It embraces a large fynbos conservatory, forests, orchards and 100 hectares of cool-grown vineyard, caressed by breezes off the Atlantic Ocean.
This White Blend is the crème-de-la-crème of the white wines on Lourensford. Harvested from select sections of the best single-vineyards. It is skillfully and meticulously blended from the best barrels in the cellar to express the essence of their unique terroir.

Cultivar: Sauvignon blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier.
