About This Wine

Chenin Blanc

The Swartland region of South Africa is known for producing some of the most famous and flavorful wines in the area, and this Chenin Blanc is no exception. Located on the Western Cape, Swartland benefits from the coastal influence of the nearby Atlantic Ocean. The climate forces grapes to work harder to survive, resulting in concentrated flavors and high acidity. This Chenin Blanc features tropical flavors and light floral aromas, making it approachable and likable by any wine lover. With high acidity that makes your mouth water for another glass, this is perfect for patio season during warm spring nights and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

Wine Region


Swartland

Swartland is one of South Africa's largest wine regions, famed for its mouthwatering Chenin Blancs, fragrant Syrahs and punchy Pinotage. Forty miles north of Cape Town, Swartland covers a large area from the Atlantic Ocean to the sun-kissed plains of Piketberg. The region has a hot, dry climate away from the cooling ocean, with ancient shale and granite-based soils. This forces the vines to work hard, producing small but concentrated grapes.
