Beaumont, Chenin Unwooded 2024

Beaumont is a family-owned winery in Bot River, located in South Africa's cooler Cape South Coast. The 2024 growing season began with a wet winter followed by a dry summer, resulting in healthy grapes with concentrated flavours.

What you smell
Ripe pear and yellow apple, with hints of lemon blossom and a touch of honey. Fresh and inviting.

What you taste
Juicy fruit with a crisp acidity that keeps the wine vibrant. Four months on the lees provide a subtle creaminess without overpowering the fruit. Medium finish with a slightly bitter, almond-like taste.

How it's made
100% Chenin Blanc, fermented and aged in concrete and stainless steel tanks. No wood contact, keeping the fruit pure and bright. Four months on fine lees for added texture.

Serve
Around 10°C. No decanting needed. A standard white wine glass is sufficient.

Pairs well with

  • Garlic Prawns: The freshness cuts through the fat, and the fruit complements the sweet taste of the prawns.
  • Thai Green Curry: The wine's slight sweetness tempers the heat, while the acidity balances the rich coconut milk.
  • Goat Cheese with Honey: The wine's creamy texture matches the cheese, and its freshness prevents it from becoming too heavy.

Scores

  • Wine Advocate: 92/100
  • Platter's Wine Guide: 4 stars / 88 points
  • Vivino: 4.0/5

Walker Bay ligt aan de zuidkust van Zuid-Afrika, waar de koude oceaan het klimaat zo verkoelt dat Pinot Noir en Chardonnay er goed gedijen: druiven die in de rest van het warme land moeite hebben om hun frisheid te behouden.
