David & Nadia Plat'bos Chenin Blanc, Swartland 2023
White Wine from South Africa - Coastal Region
David Sadie, the David of David & Nadia, describes Plat'bos, a single vineyard located just over a dirt road from Skaliekop, as 'unforgiving' thanks to its desolate granitic soils and warm, north-facing aspect. It's also a fairly apt way to describe the wine in its youth. Planted in 1981 it's the first vineyard to be picked with three separate passes in the first few weeks of February each of which are fermented and aged separately before blending. The result is an incredibly taut and acid-driven style of chenin with a lean, lithe body at only 11% alcohol. Older vintages of this wine show its potential to build amazing weight and richness, but patience is required. If you enjoy serious acidity this can be poured now, otherwise it might be best to leave it until 2027 to let it unwind. Please note that this wine is only available as part of the mixed case MX25344.
