Tasting Note

Naturally higher extract and focused acidity meld together to define this wine. The 2023 displays concentrated aromas of yellow apple, orange peel and struck match. The impressively layered palate reveals pithy texture and mineral-laced fruit, with a refreshing saline edge.

Product Notes

Mullineux Iron Swartland Chenin Blanc is a distinctive South African wine, hailing from Swartland. With its luxurious golden hue, it boasts an expressive bouquet of honeyed pears, white flowers and baking spices. On the palate, it balances a lively acidity with rich, sumptuous undertones of dried peaches and apricots. The touch of minerality is a nod to its namesake 'Iron' soils that lend an exceptional depth of flavour. This is a full-bodied, complex wine with a long, satisfying finish, making it an excellent pairing for poultry dishes and cream sauces. Mullineux's Chenin Blanc truly reflects the compelling terroir of Swartland.
