KWV Contemporary Collection Chenin Blanc Muscat d'Alexandrie 2011

This semi-sweet wine has distinctive tropical fruit, floral and muscat aromas, complemented by apple, litchi and grapefruit flavours on the palate. The wine is refreshing, well balanced with a lingering, fruity aftertaste.

in the vineyard : About the area
South Africa's vineyards are mostly situated in the Western Cape region, near to the coast. This is the southernmost region of the African continent, and has a Mediterranean type climate and diverse soils perfectly suited to quality grape production.

Vintage conditions
The 2011 harvest in The Western Cape was warmer and drier than normal, resulting in lower yields, smaller bunches and consequently riper flavours. These seasonal conditions produced sound fully ripe and healthy grapes, with resultant wines rich, soft and generous in flavour.
