Villion Wines - Blanc de l'atlantique 2022

Grape Varieties:

Elgin Viognier 60%, Elgin Chardonnay 17%, Bot River Roussanne 14%, Bot River Chenin Blanc 9%

Winemaking Method & Maturation:

Villion Blanc de l'Atlantique is crafted using a minimal intervention approach, rooted in environmentally friendly and traditional winemaking methods. The winemaker selects fruit from multiple wards, ensuring that each vineyard contributes specific characteristics to the blend, such as elevated aromatics, layered flavor, and structure. Grapes are hand-selected, and spontaneous fermentation with ambient yeast is favored, showcasing the authenticity and terroir of the region. Some components, like Chenin Blanc, undergo skin fermentation to lend extra texture, while the wine is aged in small French oak barrels for seven months to heighten perfume and complexity without overshadowing the fruit. The process is designed to preserve natural aromas, texture, and mineral freshness, with an emphasis on freshness and maritime influence from the Cape South Coast.

Tasting notes:

The wine is clear and pale lemon-gold in appearance, suggesting vibrancy and a youthful profile, likely reflecting both the predominant Viognier content and careful winemaking that focuses on freshness and preserved aromatics.

The nose is pronounced, offering pure stone-fruit aromas with ripe peach, apricot, and hints of tropical fruit like pawpaw. There is an aromatic lift of Turkish delight and floral perfume, supported by notes of spiced pear, clove, cinnamon, and a light touch of creamy oak and crushed stone.

On the palate, there is a mouth-watering entry with flavors echoing the nose: juicy stone fruits, subtle tropical tones, and sweet baking spice. The texture is medium to full-bodied, displaying a creamy mouthfeel and persistent, chalky minerality. Bright acidity ensures balance and length, leading to a harmonious finish that is both fresh and textured.

On the whole: A beautifully balanced and aromatic South African blend, vibrant and creamy with expressive stone fruit and spice.

Aging potential:

Perfect now but will show different faces within the next 5 10 years.
