Description
The flagship Chenin Blanc from the winemaking team of Ken Forrester and Martin Meinert, the FMC (Forrester Meinert Chenin) is hand-picked from low-yielding bush vines and is always a stunner. Wine writer Neal Martin awarded the 2016 vintage 93 points; expect similar greatness from the 2017.
Tasting Notes
Another bold and distinctive Chenin Blanc that shows a confident, rich, exotic bouquet of honey on warm buttered white toast, honeysuckle scents, apricot preserve and crystalised tangerine peel. On the palate there is a ripe glycerol mouthfeel that is simply bursting with sweet lemon and white citrus notes, green mango, papaya, quince and pithy orange marmalade. In true FMC style, the wine delivers some incredibly audacious flavours and complexity with a wonderfully viscous mouthfeel intricately balanced by fresh tangy acids, honied apricots, brioche and orange blossom nuances. The finish is intense and generous but also fresh and dry despite the wine's hallmark RS. This is yet another benchmark Chenin Blanc effort from Ken Forrester Wines. Drink now and over the next 5 to 8+ years. Score - 94+. (gregsherwoodmw.com, Dec. 4, 2021)
