Apricot, bruised peach. Background of butterscotch. Wheat-yellow in color. Medium-full bodied. Flabby. Chenin can age, but for this bottling, oxygenation in the winemaking process means that this wine will be over the hill in 5. Maybe it’s the bottle.

2015 vintage - Full body, ripe stone fruit, yet quiet Minerality and acidity. A bit aggressive for my taste

So delicious and well rounded - waxy yellow fruit, citrus, white flowers, and chamomile.

Lovely Chenin Blanc (Steen) it was bright and balanced. A crowd pleaser. #WOSA #Capesomm

This is the best South African wine I've had. (Out of maybe 10 in my 18 yrs as a wine lover.) Very enjoyable. The alcohol is excessive on the nose but not in the mouth.

Shows hints of passion fruit, caramelized pineapple, and candied orange zest. Medium bodied with zippy acidity; ripe green apple, pear and orange blossom fill the mid palate. Fresh medium finish is soft and inviting.
