Ahrens Family Wines Kwarts van die Paarl Chenin Blanc 2023
R450.00
“All my wines are address specific, from a unique terroir or Appellation as the French call it. Chenin Blanc is South Africa’s most important white grape and is versatile & well adapted to our warm as well as cooler climates. We are currently producing three Old Vine Chenin’s (OVC). This is our OVC from the northern Paarl wine region and the lightest of our three OVC’s. Components are harvested at different ripeness levels in order to create a harmonious balance between rich & ripe Chenin flavours and freshness & acidity of the earlier picking. This wine aims to produce a white wine that defines the northern Paarl ward, and hopefully, in time, becomes the identity style of the northern Paarl region.”
Description
Label art – We decided to change our labels for the 2022 vintage and foreseeable future. We started our winery in 2008 with “blank” labels signifying a clean page of new beginnings to communicate the address as the identity of a wine rather than a grape varietal. In 2016, we moved to using art pieces on our labels done by well-known artists of South Africa. Each artwork represented a unique expression of each wine. We did that from 2016 to 2021 and accumulated many amazing art pieces during that time.
Our new look communicates our “clean” and minimalistic approach to how we make our wines. The small intrinsic details in our designs symbolize our attention to small, yet very important details in our minimal intervention winemaking style.
