[SOLD-OUT] Millton Te Arai Chenin Blanc 2019

NOT MANY CAN RIVAL THE CHENIN MADE BY BIODYNAMIC HEAVYWEIGHT, MILLTON.
 

"Over the years our determination to produce one of the world’s best wines from this variety is a seasonal challenge and a bottled fantasy. On the crush pad the stems are discarded as these grapes give up their juice very easily during the long slow press cycle. The juice is collected together and allowed to settle for only a short time as we wish to keep the fine sediments, for it is here that all the nutrients lie which satisfy a well behaved fermentation.

The fermentation and maturation take place in demi-muids (large 600 litre oak barrels) and stainless steel tanks. The wine matures in these vessels over time, and without the obtrusion of oak tannins, which would otherwise disrespect the subtle fruit aromas." - Millton
