Beaumont Hope Marguerite Chenin Blanc 2018

One of the most exciting Chenin Blancs currently being produced in South Africa, Beaumont Hope Marguerite has won praise from top international wine critics such as Tim Atkin and Jancis Robinson. The grapes used for this wine are carefully selected from the estate's oldest Chenin plantations, dating back to the 1970s. The wine is fermented in large French oak barrels and aged on its lees to add additional character and complexity.

The result is a powerful, full-bodied white wine reminiscent of a fine white Burgundy. On the nose, there are intense notes of white peaches, vanilla and mango, while the first sip reveals a firm structure and bright tropical fruit aromas. It is a wine that responds well to aging and can be kept in the cellar for at least five to seven years.
