Sourced from a single granite hill in Firgrove, just 4km from the ocean, these vines are constantly battered by the sea breeze. Chris and Suzaan Alheit have a knack for finding these extreme sites where the vines have to struggle, resulting in wines with immense energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2022 release is particularly concentrated. It was fermented naturally in a mix of cement eggs and old barrels, staying on the lees for a year to build mid-palate weight. The winemakers avoid any tricks here, letting the maritime site and the granite soils do all the heavy lifting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is bracingly fresh. It smells of lime zest and crushed shells, with a palate loaded with saline yellow fruit. There is a great \"crunch\" to the texture that makes it incredibly food-friendly. It is a world-class white with a massive following, and our small allocation never lasts long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 points\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"a Chenin Blane that supersedes its vintage with steely intensity, lots of stony minerality, notes of kelp and sea salt, lemon and lime fruit and a savoury, umami-like finish.\"\u003cbr\u003e- Tim Atkin MW (Vinous)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Alheit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56141874135412,"sku":"kgv1789957680389","price":46.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5613\/8100\/files\/2022-alheit-vineyards-nautical-dawn-chenin-blanc_1.webp?v=1789957682","url":"https:\/\/petcameramon.shop\/products\/2022-alheit-vineyards-nautical-dawn-chenin-blanc","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
