Alheit ‘Limited Release’ Chenin Blanc 2018, Western Cape

Description

Alheit’s South Africa’s most sought-after young winery. Its winemaker, Chris Alheit, was Tim Atkin MW’s 2018 ‘Winemaker of the Year’. And this Chenin Blanc was called “shimmering” by The Guardian’s David Williams. With low-intervention winemaking and no use of oak, it’s a clean, pristine assemblage of creamy honeysuckle, pear, peach and green apple that’s boosted by a spoonful of lemon curd.
