The name Patina is derived from its source. Relating gold prospectors with their mining pans and the patina that developed on their equipment over time. Grapes for the Patina Chenin Blanc are from a single site at our Goldmine Estate, grown on schist and decomposed dolomitic granite. Chenin has a particular affinity for the warm, Mediterranean terroir along the Riebeeks River.
Tasting note: A chenin offering subtle layers of citrus, apricot, quince, pear and stone fruit aromas, and hints of acacia flower and allspice. Flavours of lemon, yellow apple and nectarine follow through onto an elegant, balanced palate with delicate notes of greengage, papaya, yellow apple and passion fruit. The wine is light to medium bodied, with a smooth, fleshy texture and vibrant, integrated acidity. Lime zest, green apple and lemongrass linger on a clean, refreshing finish with hints of orange blossom, ginger and saffron. This is an outstanding Chenin Blanc, rich and ripe but with wonderful freshness.
Food match: Poultry in a cream sauce.
