Arabica Flat White Chenin Blanc 2025

Tasting Notes:
This wine shines with a luminous pale straw colour. The nose reveals its oak influence, offering aromas of vanilla and toasted almonds. These delicate oak notes are seamlessly intertwined with ripe fruit aromas of pear, quince, yellow apple, and pineapple, while subtle floral hints and a touch of oak spice add depth and intrigue. On the palate, the wine achieves a perfect balance between the vibrant fruit and the gentle oak. Flavours of juicy pear, crisp apple, and lush peach unfold, enhanced by a creamy texture derived from the oak aging. Mid-palate, nuances of lemon curd and a soft nuttiness bring additional layers of complexity. The oak remains understated, supporting rather than overshadowing the wine’s fresh fruit character. The finish is long and refined, showcasing lingering notes of yellow citrus zest and sweet tinned peaches. A bright, refreshing acidity leaves a clean and invigorating impression.

Food pairing:
The ideal complement to seafood dishes like seared white fish, lobster, or scallops in creamy sauces, as well as roast chicken or turkey with light
gravies or citrus sides. Vegetarian options such as butternut squash risotto or mushroom gratin pair beautifully, while roast pork with apple glaze or honey-glazed ham enhances the wine’s fruit-forward notes.
