The Wolftrap Viognier Chenin Blanc Grenache Blanc 2019

A blend of 48% Viognier, 41% Chenin Blanc and 11% Grenache Blanc, this medium-weight wine offers ripe fruit aromas and flavors of Anjou pear, peach and orange rind that are complemented by notes of fennel, mentholated fynbos and ginger. Medium acidity cuts through the rich mouthfeel, with a lasting kiss of toasted spice on the close.

A bold nose entices with its abundance of nectarine, peach melba, and stewed apple aromas with delicate whiffs of lemon meringue. The white peach character of the nose follows through onto the mid-palate with flavors of lemon verbena, quince, and chives. The palate is soft, smooth, and medium-bodied yet with vibrant, integrated acidity. The wine has a slightly spicy finish with hints of nettles, flint, and preserved lemons.
