Kleine Zalze Heritage Vineyards Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2023 Coastal Region, South Africa
13% alcohol. This is from vineyards planted between 1977 and 1988. Rich, ripe and textural with good balance to the peach and pear fruit, with a touch of melon and some apple too. There’s a twist of salinity on the finish, as well as some almond. This is great value for money. 93/100 (£12.99 Waitrose Cellar)
