*NEW VINTAGE*

Region: Maconnais

Appellation: Pouilly-Fuisse

Grape variety: Chardonnay

Situation: A blend of the best parcels from Fuissé's amphitheater.

This wine comes from the hilltop town of Sancerre on the left bank of the Upper Loire at an elevation of around 300m. The flint, gravel and limestone soils yield a mineral character to the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Grapes picked from vineyard blocks are vinified separately and then blended together for best balance. No oak ageing.

Tasting notes: Vintage Tunina is bright straw-colored with golden reflections. The nose is intense, wide, very elegant and persistent with scents of honey and country flowers. To the palate it is dry, soft, well balanced with an extraordinary persistence due to its full body.

"…Dreams…" from Chardonnay grapes. It has a sparkling straw-yellow colour. To the nose it offers charm and complexity, with aromas of rare elegance and refinement. Exotic hints of ripened fruit, melted butter, vanilla and pastry prevail.

Strong green-yellow, oily streaks, dried fruits, lemon verbena, candied pineapple pieces, a hint of flint in the bouquet; Tight structure, lets the muscles flex, elegant extract sweetness, piquant acidity with salty strands, enormous tension, subtle yellow fruitiness, concise minerality from the rock imparts pressure and length, excellent potent

The high quality level of the previously named "Old Vines" will be consistently continued in this Grunhauser. Only the origin is now more clearly specified by name. The Grünhäuser trocken shows clear origins on the nose; dark slate minerality, classic herbal spice, lots of ripe fruit and delicate scents of mint, woodruff and green tea.

Wine Safari Score: 94/100 Greg Sherwood MW:  This is another beautifully expressive Chenin Blanc from warm granitic mountain slopes in the Swartland region.

Wine Safari Score: 95/100 Greg Sherwood MW: After the block buster 2021 Monk Stone Chenin Blanc, the new release 2022 from Stark Conde will certainly draw a lot of attention.

Wine Safari score: 95/100 Greg Sherwood MW: I approached this new wine with a little trepidation as I know all too well from previous experience that Ian Naude’s wines always need a few years in bottle to settle in and really start to fan their peacock tail.
