Alvi’s Drift Signature Chenin Blanc 2019
ABV 14%
Total production: Unknown at time of publishing
W.O: Western Cape
Price: R60

A steal at this price. Only the best free run-juice was used in the production of this fruity, unwooded wine. Highly clarified juice was cold fermented to maximize flavour retention. On the nose it offers citrus and plenty of tropical fruit – paw paw, pineapple, passion fruit. The fruit-forwardness continues on the palate, but it’s delivered in a fresh and zesty way with good, lemony acidity.
