2024 Testalonga Baby Bandito Stay Brave
$52.00
WINEMAKER: Craig Hawkins
REGION: Swartland, SA
VARIETY: Chenin Blanc (Skin Contact)
VITICULTURE: “Planted in 1981, this is a 1.5ha block, which was abandoned in 2014, we approached the farmer and asked if we could try and revive it. The vineyard gives a very specific, salty character to the wines, maybe not as intense as those from the heart of the Paardeberg but there is a definite salinity, which we love.”
A very pretty nose with top notes of flowers, herbs, ginger and other spice before lemon and orange. The palate displays lovely fruit expression to go with bright acidity and just a touch of phenolic grip – light and energetic. Irresistible
