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.

Excellent product at a very good price. I will buy it again.
This is an excellent product at a fair price. The cream creates a barrier that protects the skin, while mosturizes it. leaves hands very soft, and it doesn't feel greasy. I know that this is a favorite brand (Avene) in France, and Amazon offers it at a very good price. I will buy it again, from Amazon. I bought it this year in Paris, and it was more expensive there.

Drying formula and smell bad
Smell so bad and made my hands dry instead of moisturizing. The formula is watery. Maybe it’s fake or expired I am not sure.

Beautiful angel statue
Size: 7*5*13 in, Size: 7*5*13 in
Got this angel garden statue about three weeks ago to put in our backyard and we really like how it looks. The resin construction is detailed and well-made, depicting an angel with spread wings and three-dimensional flowers adorning the hair, collar, and skirt hem. The craftsmanship is impressive for the price, gives off a soft romantic vibe. The solar panel on the back charges during the day - they claim 8 hours for a full charge which seems about right with good sun exposure. As night falls, the string lights embedded in the flowers turn on automatically which is convenient. However, the lights are not very bright at all. They emit a warm glow but it’s pretty dim, more of a subtle accent rather than actual illumination. You can see the flowers lit up but it’s not going to light up your garden or anything. The soft tranquil glow they advertise is accurate - it’s definitely tranquil because it’s so faint. Despite the dim lighting, we still like the overall appearance and ambiance it creates. The angel design is elegant and the natural elements blend nicely with our garden decor. The statue is weather-resistant and has held up fine through rain and sun exposure so far. The automatic on/off feature works reliably with the solar sensor. The energy efficiency is good since it’s completely solar powered with no wiring needed. Setup was easy, just stake it in the ground where it gets sunlight. The symbolism of angels and flowers is nice for memorial or decorative purposes. The size is decent, not huge but noticeable in the garden. The resin material feels durable. Would make a thoughtful gift for someone who appreciates garden decorations. Price seems reasonable for what you get. Would I recommend it? Yeah if you want a decorative angel statue with subtle accent lighting, just don’t expect bright illumination at night.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Very nice resin sculpture but LED distracting
Size: 7*5*13 in, Size: 7*5*13 in
I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this resin Angel statue. It looks better, in person, than shown in pictures. The features of the face, and wings, are very nice. What I found distracting/detracting from my overall favorable opinion is that the LED lights are embedded in the flowers at the waist and base. This is distracting at night as they do not illuminate the face or wings but leaves that in darkness with just bright lights around the waist and base. If the lights were higher up, or more directional, perhaps embedded in the wings to light up the face, torso and wings it would be so much better. To use the solar lights at night, care should be taken to ensure the back is directed toward light and that nothing surrounds the statue to block proper charging, The solar panel in back is very small and will not provide much recharging unless in direct light. If placed on the ground, with plants around it, the panel will be shaded which is not efficient. I am very pleased with the actual sculpture and would rate it higher but, I personally find the addition of the solar lights is superfluous, with no real additional value to an otherwise very nice sculpture. As a result, I intend to turn off the solar light and illuminate this with a garden light/spot.

Great Value, Lasts All Night
Size: 7*5*13 in
Impressed with the quality and performance. The angel is sturdy and weather-resistant. The solar panel charges efficiently even on partly cloudy days, and the LED light stays on from dusk until morning. It provides a lovely, gentle light that’s both decorative and functional. Excellent purchase for the price!
