Stellenrust The Mothership Chenin Blanc 2023

The Mothership is de ultieme Chenin Blanc uit de ArtiSons-galerij van Stellenrust, afkomstig van bush vines uit 1964 op graniet in de Bottelary Hills. Je proeft rijpe witte perzik en perendrop op een kern van steenfruit, met strakke mineraliteit en een levendige, fijn gecoate zurenlijn. Bij Perfectewijn kies je hiermee voor een pure, geconcentreerde Chenin in een moderne, textuurgedreven stijl.

Wijngaarden en regio

De druiven komen van oude bush vines uit 1964 in de Bottelary Hills (Stellenbosch), zonder irrigatie en zonder opbinding. Granietbodems geven spanning en een ziltig-minerale lijn, terwijl lage rendementen zorgen voor intens fruit. ArtiSons is de creatieve speelkamer van Stellenrust, waar Tertius en Kobe kleine cuvées maken uit hun meest karaktervolle percelen. The Mothership is daarbinnen het kroonjuweel, bedoeld om de essentie van Bottelary-Chenin te laten spreken.

Vinificatie en rijping

De pluk gebeurt tussen 22 en 24 Balling, met 6 tot 12 uur schilweking voor extra aromadiepte en textuur. De gisting verloopt met wilde gisten in een 2000 liter foudre en in betonnen eieren, traag en temperatuurgeleid voor maximale precisie. Na afloop gaat de jonge wijn met zijn primaire lie naar beton voor rijping op de grove lie tot 12 maanden. Wat doet rijping op de fijne droesem in betonnen eieren precies met de smaak? De constante, zachte circulatie in het ei houdt de lie in suspensie, waardoor je meer romigheid, detail en lengte krijgt zonder dat het hout de aroma’s overneemt.

Druivensamenstelling

Chenin Blanc 100 procent, afkomstig van de Bottelary-aanplant uit 1964. Oude stokken geven kleinere bessen en meer concentratie, wat je terugziet in de diepte van het fruit en de gelaagde structuur.

Proefnotities en serveertips

Intense witte perzik en perendrop in de neus, doorgezet naar een steenfruitgedreven smaak met strakke, schone mineraliteit en een levendige, fijn gecoate zuurgraad. De textuur is rijk maar niet zwaar en de finale houdt lang aan met subtiele ziltigheid. Schenk op 10 tot 12 graden bij Thai green curry, kruidige Indiase gerechten met boterig naan, of bij tonijn met zwarte peperkorst en knapperige bladsla.

Good quality pillows overall
Size: King (Pack of 2), Color: White
Got a set of these for my wife and myself as we were struggling with our old pillows. These have some really good qualities and some things we'd like to see changed. First, the good: These are look and feel like they are high quality and made with good materials. The foam itself has a very nice feel to it. We love the fact they are adjustable to add or remove foam. They come with a pretty substantial amount already in the pillow. We appreciate the CertiPur certification. Now the improvements or changes we'd like to see: The foam, while feeling great, doesn't bounce back well if you scrunch your pillows, and so every day you have to fluff and reshape the pillow, moreso than some other memory foam pillows we've owned. One side of the pillow is cooled and you can feel that even through the pillow case, and that's a great thing. However, one side is not cooled and we'd have preferred if both sides were made of the cooling material. Overall, these are good pillows and we are not disappointed with the purchase. They are not, however, our perfect pillows (which do seem hard to find), and at some point in the future will probably make their way to the guest bedroom. We would rate them as some of the better pillows we've tried and feel most people would probably like them.

Perfect Pillow
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
These are the best pillows ever. You can adjust the firmness or softness to whatever you want. For years i used a soft latex pillow , which you cant get anymore. I will never use another pillow. I have purchased 6 of these after the first one. You pick your own comfort level. Best ever. No more neck aches.

Hallelujah… finally, I found the right pillow!!!
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
I have spent a lot of money searching for the right pillow. I recently tried to Tempur-pedic that cost twice with this pillow cost. Tempur-pedic flattened out. I’ve had this pill for a few weeks now and it works wonders. I am a paraplegic. You can have a lot of neck problems. I love the fact that this pillow is adjustable. I immediately saw it was too stuffy and took a bunch out. It works perfect so glad I didn’t spend money on a $200 purple pillow. I read a lot of reviews and there were a lot of complaints about the odor. Mine did smell funny when it came out of the box. I immediately threw it in the dryer with a few bounce fabric sheets came out smelling fine. Pillows are a very individual thing, but I think for 40 bucks this pillow is worth a try. I’m really enjoying mine about one of those silk pillowcases to go over it and it sleeps cool and comfortable. Best wishes in your search for the right pillow. Update: I’ve been using this pillow several months and it continues. Give me a good night rest pain-free.. well worth the money. UPDATE: I have been using this pillow for three months and it still works great. It does not flat out or get hot..

Soft comfortable very good pillow
Size: King (Pack of 1), Color: White
I really love my new pillow it's great and comfortable. Yes, it has a little smell, but if you wash the pillowcase and put the pillow on the window for a day you won't notice anything anymore.

Best place for head
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
Do you love not getting sleep and sweating all over your pillow at night when you are asleep? If so then don't buy this pillow! If you want a good nights sleep and cool pillow like me this is the one. Ive always been ehh towards spending so much on a pillow but its 100% worth it, I sleep so much better and it forms to my head and keeps me cool at night. Great support even for my big head and comes with a bag of extra stuffing if you want to have a little more firmer pillow. Highly recommend
