chenin
racy
purity

Broom Ridge 2019 presents aromas of lime and thatch on the nose, accompanied by notes of elderflower and aromatic herbs. Racy and pure, the palate is slightly spicy and saline, best waited a few years to discover its potential. A 100% Chenin that goes very well with grilled fish!
