HOW DO YOU MAKE YOUR CHENIN? . 2020 - After pressi

HOW DO YOU MAKE YOUR CHENIN?
.
2020 - After pressing the grapes the juice was allowed to settle for 48h at 10 degrees celsius.
.
Thereafter the juice was taken off the lees and then inoculated. All of the juice was cold fermented in Stainless Steel tanks. Once fermentation was completed the wine was split between Stainless Steel and two first fill french oak barrels. Here the wine was left to mature for a further 9 months. After 9 months the wine was filtered and bottled.

2021 - After settling of the juice it will be split into two components.

Stainless Steel Tank - This component will be cold fermented with Vin13.
First fill French Oak - The juice will be fermented in the barrels with a specially selected yeast at 16 degrees celsius. At this stage the split 50/50.

AND IT’S DELICIOUS! More from @altydgedacht_estate coming on my South African #Chenin blog post coming SOON!

Part of the problem... . They say you can’t make

Part of the problem...
.
They say you can’t make changes unless you acknowledge the problem. I was personally attacked by these box of donuts 🍩 in my living room the other night and they were the problem!!!
.
But seriously, they were super tasty and I have no regrets (also part of the problem) even though I’m gluten intolerant 🙈
.
I actually prefer my @krispykreme_za ‘s a day later so they’re a little firmer. And because there’s so much creamy goodness on the inside, they maintain completely fine. TASTY!
PS this isn’t a sponsored post, we legit just dig KK!
.
Yesterday I managed to eat food I’d saved in the freezer. A new venture for me because I kept freezing the food too late and then couldn’t understand why I hated freezer food 🤣 #Yuk
.
I also managed to FINISH A NEW VLOG! YAY! It takes between 10-20 hours for me to make a vlog. It’s SO TIME CONSUMING, but also so rewarding when you look back at all the fun and beautiful locations we’ve visited. That will be up on the travel vlog @gotthepassports_ later this morning!
.
What else was I grateful for...?
.
I had a better mental health day yesterday. Just stepped back a bit and I needed the space. Agency life is so satisfying, but it can also demand too much from you. I’m glad it’s the weekend today so more rest can be had.
.
Had a nice DMC with AJ last night too. He’s had a really rough 12 months, but we still love each other more than ever so that’s always something wonderful 🥰

Have a happy day everyone! ☀️
