2022 Wild Gnu Chenin Blanc

This fruit-driven white wine emits notes of pear drops, stone fruit, yellow apple, and hints of floral undertones. On the palate, this wine is dry with strong minerality and a crisp finish. The moderate to high acidity levels enhance its freshness, making it a perfect warm-weather sipper. The grapes of the Wild Gnu Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch 2022 are harvested in the early morning to preserve flavors and enhance the color of the wine. They are then destemmed, crushed, and left to settle overnight. The clean juice is inoculated with commercial wine yeast and fermented to perfection. Finally, the wine is racked off the lees before it is fined, filtered, and stabilized. Pair this bright, fruity, and tart wine with rich cheeses and dishes with both sweet and sour flavors. South Africa is the world’s leading Chenin Blanc producer, so when it comes to a sophisticated white from this varietal, you won’t be disappointed with this Wild Gnu.
