Product Notes

The Prisoner Wine Co's Saldo Chenin Blanc is a uniquely engaging expression of one of South Africa's signature cultivars. Its elegantly pale hue belies the rich intensity of its flavour profile. On the nose, it teases with delicate honeysuckle and pineapple notes. The palate comes alive with ripe citrus, crisp apple and hints of tropical fruits, complemented by a subtle minerality. Refreshingly bright and acidic finish makes this Chenin Blanc a versatile companion to a range of cuisines. Produced in limited releases, Saldo Chenin Blanc embodies The Prisoner Wine Co's dedication to eclectic, adventurous winemaking.
