Chenin Blanc 'Rotsbank' The Sadie Family 2023

Chenin Blanc 'Rotsbank' is one of the latest releases from The Sadie Family, among Swartland's iconic wineries. The vines grow on a granitic soil that forces the vines to seek nourishment deep within. A fine and complex white, the nose develops intriguing mineral and smoky aromas, with notes of grapefruit and tropical hints. The palate is incredibly concentrated and taut, with marked freshness. It goes perfectly with seafood
