Product Notes

Mullineux Schist Swartland Chenin Blanc is an exquisite South African white wine. This full-bodied Chenin Blanc displays a robust character filled with intricate layers of flavour. Minerality shines from the Swartland schist soil, complementing an enriched bouquet of honeyed orchard fruits. With an invigorating acidity underlying notes of ripe apple, apricot and a hint of spice, Mullineux Schist delivers a lengthy and satisfying finish. Suitable for ageing as it matures harmoniously, it becomes more refined and complex. A lavish treat for discerning palates, it is a testament to the outstanding craftsmanship of the Mullineux winery. It is, simply put, the epitome of fine wine.

Tasting Notes

The 2020 vintage has aromas of fennel, fresh quince and ruby grapefruit. On the palate, notes of citrus peel and roasted almond are complemented by an inviting phenolic grip, full palate and jubilant freshness typical of this site.
