Orpheus & The Raven Old Bush Vine Chenin 2022

R364.00

Produced from 48-year-old bush vines in Durbanville. Melon, citrus fruit, honey with a hint of cedar spice (from terroir as well as barrel maturation) is present on the nose. The mouthfeel is luscious and rich due to spontaneous malolactic fermentation and the mellowing effect of oak. The riper picking point also contributed to palette weight. A lingering aftertaste with vibrant acidity is the showcase of the natural concentration of old bush vine fruit.

Description

While Orpheus could bend the world to his will, and charm all living things with music and song, he could not convince the Raven to reveal to him the Light.

The Light ­that would allow him to see the past and the future at once, so that he could understand the present. As he watched the cunning Raven dancing to his musical charms, the bird cried: “Orpheus, never look back!” revealing to him glimpses of Light hidden in plain sight behind the darkness of his raised wings.
