False Bay 'Slow' Chenin Blanc: Expressive, Textural & Handcrafted

Experience the elegance of handcrafted winemaking with False Bay 'Slow' Chenin Blanc. Established by renowned winemaker Paul Boutinot, False Bay Vineyards is a testament to years of deep-seated involvement in South Africa's vibrant wine industry. This expressive Chenin Blanc is a showcase of the unique terroir of False Bay, where a cool coastal breeze from the Indian Ocean tempers ripening, producing wines with precise varietal character and captivating purity.

The name 'Slow' refers to the wine's unique winemaking process, which features a long, slow wild yeast fermentation that takes over 8 weeks to complete. No cultured yeasts or enzymes are used, and the wine is left on its secondary lees for 5 months, resulting in a remarkable textural complexity and depth of flavour.
