Mullineux Trifecta Chenin Blanc 2020
100% Chenin Blanc
This wine hails from Mullineux’s top three Chenin Blanc vineyards planted on three soil types: GRANITE, SCHIST and IRON. The grapes were whole bunch pressed to a single barrel and co-fermented in a layered fashion with indigenous yeast. Left on the lees, unsulphured until bottling. The wine will be auctioned off in its 34th month of ageing.
“Oh, to capture just one drop of all the ecstasy
That swept that
afternoon
To paint that love upon a white balloon
And fly it
from the toppest top of all the tops that man has pushed
Beyond his
brain
Satori must be something just the same”
Memory of a Free Festival Part 1 – Space Oddity (1990)
