Vinevenom Silence Chenin Blanc Flor

The grapes are whole bunch pressed, fermented in stainless steel until dry and transferred to 300l barrels. 100% of the wine was aged under a naturally-occurring wild flor veil. The solera system (as used in Sherry production) is a continuous flow of adding new vintage wine to the already existing and aging wine which sits protected under a layer of flor. Like any yeast, this Flor is kept active by the addition of fresh juice (i.e sugar) which keeps it alive. The wine shows green olive, Maldon salt, sourdough, oyster shell & sea breeze matched with apricot, quince, Amalfi lemon and almond notes.
