The pinnacle of what Ken Forrester considers to be the finest expression of the grapes of this varietal - an icon chenin, a challenge to the world! Rich, layered with dried apricot, vanilla and honey. Will gain additional complexity with cellaring.Enjoy with special friends as an exciting aperitif or with spiced dishes, even mild seafood/shellfish or curries. Great with exotic Eastern spiced foods. This has aromas of pears, sliced peaches, smoked almonds, fresh mangoes and aniseed. Honey, too. It's textured and creamy with a full body and refreshing minerality. Long, cool and bright finish. The 2024 The FMC, one of the Cape's best-known Chenin cuvées, comes from 19 selections in the vineyard as different pockets ripen at different paces. Fermented and aged in 400-litre French oak barrels for up to 12 months with 40% new oak, this has a beautifully defined bouquet with yellow plum, beeswax and subtle nutmeg aromas. The palate is well balanced with well-integrated new oak. Hints of apricot and Satsuma, vibrant and poised, linger exquisitely on the finish. Just irresistible.
Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
