Craven Wines Chenin Blanc Karibib 2025
Polkadraai Hills, Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, South AfricaFrom 40+ year old, organically farmed radial bush vines on the weathered granite soils of Polkadraai’s Karibib Vineyard, at 300m, this was whole bunch pressed, native fermented, and left on lees 4 months until racking. In all it spent 9 months in concrete, a shift that has focused and textured this already impressive wine. Focused and stony, with wild lemon, fragrant apricot skin and crisp green apple, with a lovely shimmering texture illuminating this from beneath and propelling it long on the saline palate.Tasted: 30 September 2026Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| ON | $40.00 | 750ml | consignment |
