Introduction
Bellingham Homestead 'The Old Orchards' Chenin Blanc is a premium white wine from the Coastal Region of South Africa. The winery, which dates back to 1693, takes the name for this series from the historic homestead in the Franschhoek Valley that was once the home of the pioneering Podlashuk couple. Bellingham is renowned for its spirit of innovation and was a pioneer of many successful vinous concepts in South Africa, focusing on region specific sourcing to showcase the country's most interesting varietals.
Wine Description
This wine displays an attractive pale gold colour with a platinum glow. The sensory profile is highly expressive, with a nose evocative of old orchards featuring aromas of tropical fruit, vanilla, melon, peach, and a hint of honey. On the palate, it is full bodied and richly satisfying, offering layers of marmalade, pear, and hazelnuts supported by a textured mouthfeel and slight creaminess. The finish is long and intense, with refreshing candied lime notes and a saline infused minerality.
