Vino Between the Capes Chenin Blanc","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 'Between the Capes' Chenin Blanc is a bit of a wild child, sourced from a certified organic and biodynamic vineyard at the northern tip of the Cape. This site is far from your typical manicured estate - it’s untrellised, unpruned, and essentially left to its own devices, with livestock roaming free among the vines. Just 2.5km from the ocean, the fruit carries all that rugged, coastal energy and a fair bit of attitude.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, Nic Peterkin keeps things just as raw and honest. This release is essentially a tale of two vessels: one amphora and one seasoned French barrel. Both underwent natural fermentation and at least partial malolactic fermentation, which - combined with fortnightly lees stirring - gives the wine a much softer, rounder profile than the more clinical Chenins you might be used to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs Nic puts it, this wine is \"a little less refined but easier to handle\" than his top-tier CBDB. It’s got lower acidity and a smooth, \"relaxed\" texture that makes it incredibly approachable. You get plenty of flavour and a bit of a grippy, honest mouthfeel that reflects its wild upbringing. It’s a layered, soulful Chenin that doesn't overthink things - clean, textural, and perfectly suited for a long lunch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"L.A.S.
