A Tribute to Old Vines & Pure Expression

Experience the profound character of our 2024 Estate Chenin Blanc, a wine sourced from an exceptional 40-year-old dryland vineyard. Grown as traditional bush vines, these old, unirrigated vines produce grapes of remarkable concentration and complexity, resulting in a wine that truly speaks of its place and vintage.

Crafted with a minimalist philosophy, the hand-harvested grapes were whole-bunch pressed and naturally fermented in seasoned French oak barrels. This gentle, hands-off approach preserves the vibrant fruit while building a rich, textured palate that is the hallmark of world-class Chenin Blanc.

Tasting Experience:

  • Nose: An alluring bouquet of ripe apricot and peach unfolds, beautifully layered with the unique herbal scent of fynbos and delicate undertones of vanilla and spice.

  • Palate: A full, focused, and beautifully defined palate. Flavours of soft stone fruit are elegantly woven with warm spices like clove and allspice. The experience is framed by a brilliant, mouth-watering acidity that leads to a long, lingering mineral finish.

The Perfect Partner for Your Table

This Chenin Blanc's exceptional balance of richness and acidity makes it incredibly food-friendly.

  • Pair it with roast chicken or crispy pork belly with an apple or apricot chutney.

  • Enjoy it alongside creamy risotto or a mild Cape Malay curry.

  • Perfect for grilled kingklip, seared scallops, or a fresh summer salad.
