Home Chenin Blanc 2016

White gold or straw with a gentile haze. Aromas of pear, lemon zest, quince, lanolin and dry hay. The palate is dense, full and structural, with soft fruit and lacy acidity. An impression of clay with spice, baked apple and a honey suckle finish. A full bodied expressive Home Chenin Blanc.

Hand picked fruit was 100% foot crushed, and whole bunch pressed using a basket press over twelve hours. Juice drained directly to barrique and fermented using a Home vineyard yeast starter. 100% barrel fermentation and maturation. 100% Malolactic fermentation. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
