This blend harmoniously combines the unique characteristics of each grape, making it a standout wine that has gracefully matured over the years.
Composition:
39% Chenin Blanc – Provides a solid foundation with its classic stone fruit flavors.
31% Semillon – Adds depth with its tropical fruit notes.
30% Sauvignon Blanc – Offers a vibrant touch with its citrus flavors.
Winemaking:
Fermentation: A portion of the Chenin Blanc and Semillon were fermented in new French oak barrels, a technique that imparts additional body and a complex, integrated oak character to the wine.
Aging: After fermentation, the blend was carefully aged, allowing each varietal to contribute to the wine’s complexity and balance.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: As it opens up, the wine reveals a layered bouquet of ripe stone fruits, enriched by hints of tropical notes and a refreshing citrus zest.
Palate: On the palate, the wine offers a beautiful interplay of fruitiness and fresh acidity, underscored by a subtle oak influence that adds complexity without overpowering the delicate fruit flavors.
Finish: The finish is long and nuanced, with secondary characteristics such as honey, nuts, and a hint of spice becoming more pronounced as the wine has matured.
Current Drinking Window:
Optimal Maturity: Now in its ideal drinking window, 14 years post-bottling, the Naude White Blend 2010 exhibits a remarkable concentration and freshness. Its evolution in the bottle has allowed the emergence of intriguing secondary flavors, making it a fantastic choice for those who appreciate the depth and complexity of aged whites.
Food Pairing:
This blend is exceptionally versatile due to its balance between fruit and acidity. It pairs splendidly with a variety of dishes, including roasted chicken, seafood platters, or rich creamy pastas. Its complexity also allows it to stand up to more aromatic dishes like Thai or Vietnamese cuisine.
Conclusion:
The Naude White Blend 2010 is a testament to the art of blending and aging, delivering a wine that not only reflects the characteristics of its varietals but also the potential for elegance and complexity with proper aging. A delightful experience for any wine enthusiast looking to explore the subtleties of matured white wines.
