Creating a companion wine for Cinsault was no great challenge for this Chenin Blanc specialist! Over the past few years, Chris Alheit has built up a "collection" of old vines, some of which didn't make the cut for the estate's single-vineyard wines... So here they are! All the richness of Chenin, with crisp apple notes, in a single bottle!
