The wine is then aged for 11 months, before being bottled. It reveals notes of yellow nectarine, peach, white flowers, ripe apple, quince, candied lemon, coconut, toast and wet stones.

Thanks to critical acclaim, the winery has established itself as one to watch in the coming years. It was during his travels in California and Australia that he became aware of the diversity of terroirs that the Cape region has to offer. Back in South Africa, he worked alongside renowned winemaker Chris Alheit. It was in his cellars and under his watchful guidance that Franco began vinifying the first wines of his Lourens Family Wines project.

Although the winery is still young, Franco Lourens' wines are surprisingly refined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wine is the second cuvée produced at the winery. In 2016, Franco profited from it to buy an engagement ring for his now wife, Lindi Carien.

Lindi Carien is a complex and original blend of 27% Verdelho (the oldest vines of the grape variety in South Africa), 52% Chenin Blanc, 13% Colombard, 5% Grenache Blanc and 3% Palomino, from different sites in the Western Cape, a fine testimony to South Africa's rich diversity. Franco Lourens demonstrates his winemaking sensibility with this wine that expresses a beautiful duality. The nose is invitingly full, with hints of honey, beeswax and pastry.
