Description

Description

A dessert wine solera-style blend of beautiful South African Chenin Blanc!

The secret to this Straw Wine is harvesting Chenin grapes at normal ripeness levels to capture a healthy acidity.  The grapes are dried outside in the shade until they are half raisined, concentrating flavours, acidity and sugar into a super intense, but balanced treat. Fermentation is in old French barrels with indigenous yeasts and can last up to a year.  The wine is bottled unfiltered and unfined.

Each vintage Mullineux holds back a barrel or two of Straw Wine and blend them into their Solera, refreshing it each year with the new vintages. As they are legally not allowed to use the term Solera on the bottles, they named the wine Olerasay instead.

Tasting Notes:

Bright golden straw in colour, with a rich, viscous appearance The nose and palate is a complex, enticing dried peaches, apricots, honey and marmalade, with a savoury nuttiness.

The intense mouth feel is balanced by a clean, fresh and very long finish Best served chilled at 9 to 11°C.
