Western Cape "Proprietors' White Blend" 2023 - Holden Manz

Holden Manz is a 22-hectare wine estate in the southernmost corner of the Franschhoek Valley, South Africa, set between the Franschhoek River and Stony Brook at 300 metres above sea level and surrounded by spectacular mountains.

Proprietors' White Blend 2023 brings together four white varieties, led by Sémillon (45%) with Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Viognier. Twelve months on fine lees add creaminess and complexity.

Pale lemon gold, with a bright, flinty nose of lemon peel, apricot, tangerine, meringue and honeysuckle, and a full-bodied, elegant citrus palate with good length. Serve at 10-12 °C with fish, seafood or soft cheeses.
