In the glass, the \u003cstrong\u003eChenin Blanc\u003c\/strong\u003e is distinguished by a dry and precise character, characterised by fruit of crystalline clarity accompanied by a bright acidity and a savoury, ethereal finish. The structural balance derives from a layered vinification that favours a clear aromatic expression, embellished with \u003cstrong\u003enotes of quince\u003c\/strong\u003e, angelica and white-fleshed fruit. A crisp interpretation that faithfully reflects the identity of its terroir of origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis white wine is born in the Stellenbosch Kloof gorge, from \u003cstrong\u003esouth and east-facing vineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e located at an altitude of two hundred and twenty metres. The area enjoys a Mediterranean climate mitigated by maritime influences and ocean breezes, responsible for the formation of cool morning mists. These conditions keep temperatures lower during the ripening period, favouring the development of its aromatic profile. The forty-two-year-old vines are rooted in \u003cstrong\u003edecomposed granite soils\u003c\/strong\u003e and loam. Its provenance from a \u003cstrong\u003esingle historic vineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e ensures a marked gustatory tension and an extremely clean olfactory profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are processed through an alcoholic fermentation prolonged for eight months. The entire process and the subsequent malolactic phase are split between \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, clay amphorae and concrete eggs. This is followed by \u003cstrong\u003ematuration on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e lasting nine months. In the amphorae and concrete, the fine lees remain in natural suspension, while periodic rolling is performed within the barrels to impart further \u003cstrong\u003erichness to the palate\u003c\/strong\u003e. This precise technical approach elevates the structural texture while keeping the natural vivacity of the sip intact.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and interesting facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jordan Wine Estate Chenin Blanc, from the prestigious Timepiece collection, preserves the legacy and imprint of founder Ted Jordan.
