This Chenin Blanc is sourced from old bush vines grown in the decomposed granite soils of Stellenbosch. The winemaking involves minimal intervention and extended time on the lees, resulting in a wine that is texturally fascinating and vibrantly alive. It is a modern, crunchy, and soulful expression of South Africa’s signature white grape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"22\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"22\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAppearance\u003c\/b\u003e - A bright, pale straw yellow with a subtle, unfiltered cloudiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"23\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eNose\u003c\/b\u003e - A fresh and slightly wild bouquet. Aromas of crunchy green apple and white pear are layered with notes of honeysuckle, wet wool, and a distinct, stony mineral freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"24\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"24\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePalate\u003c\/b\u003e - Medium-bodied with a remarkable tension and a slightly pithy, textured mouthfeel. The palate is led by a core of bright orchard fruit and citrus, underscored by a clean, saline acidity that provides incredible nerve. It finishes with a lingering note of ginger and a savory, yeast-driven complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"25\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"25\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePairings\u003c\/b\u003e - Gindara Saikyo Yaki, Teppan Live Boston Lobster, Iberico Pork with Yuzu, Aburi Engawa, Chicken Teriyaki.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"26\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"26\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eService\u003c\/b\u003e - Serve at 10–12°C. To experience the full spectrum of its textural complexity and \"granitic\" minerality, avoid serving this wine too cold. Allowing it to warm slightly in the glass reveals its hidden layers of spice and floral depth.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OpenBar.com.sg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47183134720162,"sku":"TTG-ES07","price":45.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/3028\/0354\/files\/KottabosCheninBlancSkin2023_front_b56a1245-1d75-4632-aba5-cbd70e1bffd4.png?v=1776751745","url":"https:\/\/www.openbar.com.sg\/products\/kottabos-chenin-blanc","provider":"OpenBar.com.sg","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
