Chenin Blanc Pinotage 2024

A dry white blend of Chenin Blanc and Pinotage which is best known as the ‘White Pinotage’. This wine showcases the versatility of Pinotage when blended with Chenin Blanc, resulting in a unique, social-sipping wine. Enjoyable as a crisp summer drink on its own or a perfect companion of light summer dishes and seafood.

Characteristics Good primary fruit with hints citrus and tropical fruits. Elegant, crisp entrance. Refreshingly dry and perfect balanced. A long, lingering finish with resonating fruit and acidity.

Wine making The Pinotage grapes were picked at an early stage to ensure an abundance of sweet red berry aromas. After crushing the grapes, the juice was immediately drained and separated from the skins to give the wine its distinct colour. The juice fermented for 20 days at 11° C. After fermentation, a fuller bodied and more structured Chenin Blanc was sourced from Villiersdorp region and blended with the Pinotage.

Food pairing A great companion to seafood or light summer dishes

Aromas Complex tropical/citrus fruit aromas giving way to notes of passion fruit, pineapple, lemon, and pear.
