"Taste all the know-how of the sublime Alheit estate in this accessible cuvée for immediate pleasure!"

"The 2024 Hereafter Here comes from young vineyards that spend 12 months on lees. Alheit uses it as a potential plot for Cartology. This pure Chenin Blanc has an effervescent bouquet with notes of lemon thyme and light citrus. The palate is well-balanced, with a citric attack and hints of tart lemon and orange peel on the finish. Perhaps a little abrupt, but excellent to drink young. 2025-2030" (Vinous 2025)

About the wine:

Raw salted almonds, chamomile, sliced apples and lemon tea on the nose of this very fresh, mineral white. Medium- to full-bodied, mineral and salty, with lively acidity. For drinking or cellaring.
