| Winemaker’s Comments: |
| Our Grysbok Chenin Blanc shows an explosion of fruit aromas such as white pear, pineapple
and yellow apple which carries through to the palate. Ginger, cinnamon and fynbos nuances
support the round and creamy textured flavours of apricot and dried lemon peel, complemented
by a lingering aftertaste. Drink now or enjoy until 2011.
