Description
Tasting notes: This white Bordeaux-style blend immediately draws the eye with its clear, brilliant, light yellow colour still tinged with green. The wine leads with inviting aromas of pear drops, mango, fennel and ripe figs with a subtle touch of waxy lanolin imparted by the inclusion of Semillon. Luxurious sun-ripened Golden Delicious apples and quince intertwine with an oyster shell mineral core, generous creaminess and harmonious acidity. A satisfying wine, displaying textured layers of fruit which linger indulgently. Whilst this wine drinks extremely well now, it will show even greater complexity with further maturation.
Food suggestions: The Century 2019 achieved both elegance and boldness, making it a worthy pairing with fresh oysters, pan seared kingklip with a creamy walnut cheese sauce, lemon and herb chicken, asparagus in a béarnaise sauce or crisply roasted duck.
