Ken Forrester Sparklehorse Brut 2022

Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, South AfricaKen Forrester is Mr. Chenin, crafting numerous styles, like this Cap Classique, entirely chenin blanc. This comes from Stellenbosch grapes planted in 1975, and aged 8 months on lees before moving to bottle, and 20 months rest sur lattes, disgorged in winter 2024. Crisp and zippy, with vanilla biscuit, light toast, and shining lemon, with a great lingering shimmery finish. Smart, fresh, and modern CC, showing well the diversity of chenin.Tasted: 31 March 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
