Donkiesbaai Steen | Donkiesbaai Steen Dbs23

The Donkiesbaai Steen 2023 has a beautiful complexity of aromas reveal themselves on the nose: candied lemon peel, pineapple, honeysuckle, beeswax, cream and shortbread. On the palate, lively acidity carries the fruit, with texture and layers of flavour expanding on the palate. A clean yet mouthwatering finish. The Steen is made up of three components: 75% is fermented and then matured in a combination of new and seasoned 500l French oak barrels. 15% is fermented spontaneously and matured on the lees in concrete eggs. Bâtonnage is done monthly for textural mouthfeel. DWWA Silver
