Wineyard Ken Forrester The FMC 2022

Coastal Region, South Afrika, White wine, Chenin Blanc
0.75 l, Item no. 11907

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.
