With its delicate straw colour and golden rim in the glass, the Bosman Optenhorst Chenin Blanc presents itself in the glass and spoils you with a delicious blend of ripe apricots, nectarines, fine citrus fruit, ginger and Christmas baking spices. A wonderfully reserved mouthfeel rounds off this first-class pleasure experience perfectly and ends in a lively and slightly mineral finish.

The grapes for this highly endowed Chenin were pressed all over the bunch and the juice obtained was left to rest overnight. The clear juice was skimmed off the next morning and filled into French Louis Latour oak barrels with a capacity of 228 l per barrel, where fermentation took place. After the alcoholic fermentation was completed, the wine matured for 6 months, with regular stirring of the yeast in the barrel, in order to obtain a nice mouthfeel and intense complexity in the wine.
