Dorrance, Kama Chenin Blanc 2018

Born and raised in France, Christophe Durand moved to Cape Town in 1995. Initially working as a supplier of premium French wine barrels, he became more and more involved in winemaking, eventually combining his knowledge and passion for fine wines to create Dorrance in 2000. A strong proponent of tradition, Christophe’s philosophy is to interact as little as possible with the grapes, leaving each cuvee to reflect the elegance of its terroir. Kama Chenin Blanc 2018 is selected from old bush vines from the Perdeberg region before spending 9 months in third-fill barrels. Showing subtle notes of apples, melon & spice leading to an intriguingly spicy palate with a round soft texture, enticing mineral undertones and just a slightest hint of oak. Full on elegance and one of our favourite Chenin Blancs.
