Huilkrans, Alheit Vineyards 2024

Tasting Notes

The 2024 Huilkrans is pure bush vine Chenin planted between 1974 and 1989 at 450m above sea level. It is quite discreet on the nose, with yellow plum, brioche, tangerine and light waxy aromas that are very seductive. The palate is well balanced, with fine tension and poise, the mineralité coming through nicely towards the finish. Very harmonious, perhaps this represents one of Chris Alheit's most elegant cuvées this year. Sophisticated. (Drink between 2026-2039)
