David & Nadia Sadie Chenin Blanc Rondevlei 750ml

Vintage: 2021
Description: The Sadies' approach is to farm and work vines as biologically as possible, and this follows through to the winery, where they work with minimal intervention wherever possible. Rondevlei vineyard was planted in 1984, and 2021 is the first single-vineyard wine from this plot. A quarter of the wine was aged in concrete egg. Greg Sherwood Mw: A very serious, grown-up Chenin showing dusty granitic minerality, a hint of stony reduction but also pristine purity, white peach and green apple vibrancy, with a sophisticated finish. Beverley Blanning Mw: Smoky, intense nose. Restrained and mineral, with excellent precision and beautifully savoury fruit. A super-stylish Chenin for the long term, but this is highly enjoyable now. Roger Jones: Melon, ginger syrup, gentle herbs, immense purity. Delicate white peach and nectarine peel, hints of poached Williams pear. It's complex, layered and still evolving.
