Alheit Vineyards - Broom Ridge 2019

Chenin
raced
purity

Broom Ridge 2019 presents aromas of lime and straw on the nose, accompanied by notes of elderflower and aromatic herbs. Racy and pure, the palate is slightly spicy and salty, so it's best to wait a few years to discover its full potential. A 100% Chenin that will pair very well with a nice grilled fish!
