Why You'll Love It
Bright, brisk Chenin with more interest than its easy-going manner suggests. Citrus and fresh apple lead into a gently saline finish, with enough texture to work at the table. A cracking bottle for roast chicken, grilled fish or a plate of lemony vegetables.
About The Producer
The Liberator is Richard Kelley MW's South African wine project, releasing small batches that might otherwise go unnoticed. Each has an illustrated episode and its own story. Midnight Bakkie Rides Again was made by Alheit Vineyards. The generous 2022 crop provided an opportunity to release extra Chenin from this highly regarded Cape producer.
Winemaking Information
Chenin Blanc from Alheit Vineyards, released as The Liberator's Episode 42. A wet 2021 winter helped produce an unusually generous 2022 harvest, leaving additional wine available beyond the estate's principal selections. This Western Cape bottling was selected from that surplus and released at 13% ABV.
