Indaba Chenin Blanc 2007

Introduction
The word ’Indaba’ has many meanings in the South African context, but its original translation is derived from a joining together to discuss issues of importance. Tribal chiefs in South Africa would call their people together to discuss any issues that might affect the village or surrounding area, and an ‘Indaba’ would be held.

Wine Making
The grapes are picked in the cool early morning hours. After crushing, the juice was left in contact with the skins for 2-3 hours and was then fermented in a tank. The wine was left on the lees for 6 months in order to impact a creamy texture. A small amount of Chardonnay was blended in for additional richness and complexity.
