Wineyard Ken Forrester The FMC 2022
For the 2022 "The FMC?, the harvest team was out in the vineyards 15 times over a period of 40 days this year to harvest the Chenin Blanc optimally. It was then pressed as a whole bunch, fermented and matured for up to 12 months in 400-liter French oak barrels, of which around 40% were new. The wine is one of South Africa's great Chenin Blancs with a fascinating aroma of light flint, lemon, quince, baked apple and lightly roasted hazelnuts. On the palate, it is fresh, juicy and balanced with effortless richness. 95 points from Vinous is a good choice here.
