About This Wine

Posted Accord

Chenin Blanc

The Posted Accord Chenin Blanc is an unassumingly balanced wine hailing from South Africa. Known locally as Steen, the varietal is well-loved and planted all over the country. The quality of the 2018 vintage was fantastically high due to cooler conditions across the country’s wine region throughout the year. Embrace the crisp acidity of this wine and you will find that it shines in its simplicity. It delights you with the mouth-watering tastes of green apple, guava and a touch of tropical fruit. With its clean and crisp notes, it will pair beautifully with all types of shellfish, grilled fish, and squid. Judges rave about this wine too. It was awarded 98 Points, a "Best of Class" nod, and a Double Gold medal (unanimous Gold from every judge!) at the 2019 Harvest Challenge.

Wine Region

South Africa

With its mountainous, maritime-influenced winegrowing regions, South Africa produces top-quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Chenin Blanc and premium Syrah, Pinotage, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The Dutch brought vines here back in the 1600s to satiate their thirsty sailors en route to India, but they probably never imagined just how important to the wine world South Africa would one day become. Indeed, it took centuries for South Africa to discover its full potential. Most of the country's winegrowing areas thrive in the southwest, known as the Western Cape. Its most famous regions are an easy drive from Cape Town and include Stellenbosch, Swartland, Breedekloof and Franschhoek.
