Journeys End Ad Infinitum White Blend 2023

Journey's End Estate is positioned high on the slopes of the Schapenberg in Stellenbosch, overlooking False Bay. This elevated, maritime-influenced site benefits from cooling ocean breezes that slow ripening and help preserve natural acidity, a key factor in producing vibrant, expressive white wines. The estate focuses on a balance between modern precision and classic structure, with careful vineyard selection and minimal intervention in the cellar. The Ad Infinitum range reflects this philosophy, blending varieties to highlight both freshness and texture, while maintaining clarity of fruit and sense of place. Colour: Pale straw with a subtle green tint, bright and youthful in the glass. Nose: Fresh aromas of gooseberry, citrus zest and green apple lead, followed by softer notes of stone fruit and a gentle herbal lift. A hint of flinty minerality adds complexity. Palate: Light to medium-bodied with a crisp, lively acidity. Citrus and tropical fruit flavours carry through, supported by a slightly rounded texture from the Semillon component. Clean and focused, with good fruit purity and a subtle savoury edge. Finish: Refreshing and dry, with lingering citrus and a faint mineral note that keeps it precise.
