Bellingham Pear Tree White Chenin Blanc Viognier, 750 ml

The long standing pear tree at the Bellingham Manor House, planted in 1710, is the oldest in South Africa and is a proud feature of the beloved garden of founding couple Bernard and Fredagh Podlashuk. Varietals: 80% Chenin Blanc and 20% Viognier. Tasting notes: Brilliant, green and gold glints, and a burst of tropical pineapple, passion fruit and honey melon tinged with yellow peach and zesty orange blossom both on the nose and palate. An engaging wine of great balance and integration, finishing with freshness and lively fruity intrigue. Serving notes: Best enjoyed withing the first year or two of vintage when the fruit is at its most expressive. Recommended with sushi, Thai chicken wraps, Caesar salad and crumbled calamari.
