Chenin is a bit of a South African speciality – and nobody does it better than Demorgenzon. So, it was natural that we’d source grapes for our Definition Chenin from them. Chenin is a lot like Chardonnay: it really picks up the character of its terroir. Made at high altitude, it’s like mountain air – fresh and pure. These vineyards are the first place the sun hits on the old road between Stellenbosch and Cape Town. All that sun ripens the grapes to absolute perfection, making the wine incredibly aromatic. Think mandarins and nectarines – a fruit salad of a wine, with aging on the lees giving it a lovely rich, honeyed texture. Heady and delicious. Try it with scallops or onion tart. The sweetness really complements this Chenin’s texture.
