Old Vine Chenin Blanc planted in 1981
"This is the coolest of my OVC(Old-Vine-Chenin) vineyard sites. The paradox is that it’s still the warmest part of Stellenbosch. The balance of acidity in wine is achieved by harvesting in stages of ripeness. Typically 33% early for freshness and acid. 33% at optimal ripeness and 33% late harvested for richness and beautiful ripe Chenin flavour. The wine is medium bodied with minerality on the pallet and the fruit profile is predominantly yellow." - Albert Ahrens
