Daniel Brennan makes a \u2018Crispy White\u2019 for his Giunta label that is Chardonnay, Viognier and Chenin Blanc, and the \u2018CV\u2019 from Tietjen Witters heads down a similar blending path. Stephan tells me this 2019 is a one-off. It isn\u2019t a hugely complex wine &#8211; with straight-foward, crisp grapefruit and stonefruit flavours. A hint of green herbals and has a really electric acidity.
