Situated in the picturesque Nuy Valley on the R60 between Worcester and Robertson, Nuy Winery has built their legacy on masterfully crafted wines inspired by their exceptional terroir and fine winemaking skills.
It is also this inheritance of fine wine excellence from which their Mastery Sauvignon Blanc 2020 and Nuy Winery Legacy Calcareo 2018 originated.
The wine has a bright green colour with aromas of fig leaf and asparagus on the nose. The palate is crispy and lengthy and has pleasant fruity tones on the finish – perfect for the warmer spring and summer days ahead.
Nuy Winery Legacy Calcareo 2018 is part of the flagship Nuy Winery Legacy range and made to compliment finely prepared cuisine.
The name Calcareo derives from the Latin word for “chalky soil” – representing the chalky terroir in which the vineyards for this wine are cultivated.
This 100% Chenin Blanc was fermented in a combination of new and second filling barrels and matured for 12 months – an elegant white wine with a vibrant lime flavour on the palate.
This wine blends perfectly with rich and creamy, or smoked dishes like wild mushroom and truffle risotto or light smoked chicken salad and will add elegance to any fancy do.
