Tasting Notes…
Kleine Zalze Chenin Blanc is produced from low-yielding old bush vines planted on the Knorhoek vineyards on the lower slopes of the towering Simonsberg Mountain produce this ripe, tropical-fruit flavoured wine. Some lees ageing and partial malolactic-fermentation help to both soften and round the finish.
