One of the crown jewels of SA white wines, Ken Forrester and his long time friend and colleague Martin Meinert first created this gem in the year 2000 and the impact on the SA wine scene was immediate. A complex, rich and aromatic wine, the FMC is so much more than what was expected; a chenin totally on another level and it fast became a legendary wine.
