Picquet Chenin '20 Citrusdal Mountain Pepper and spice delicately tickle

Pepper and spice delicately tickle the nose and then black tea and stewed strawberries and grippy tannins command the palate in a playful way

Cinsault is notorious for being difficult to tame

The flavour on this builds up with each sip

and Stellenbosh in a glass

The poem tells the story of a crocodile who ambushes a Limpopo chieftain’s daughter

Picquet 2020, his flagship Chenin from a vineyard planted in the 80's on the steep slopes of Piket Bo Berg, spent 13 months in barrel and 4 years in bottle before he decided it was good enough. And boy, we're glad he did, because this cool climate Swartland Chenin tastes like crisp pears, juicy white peaches, and chamomile tea.
