Versatile, supple, and oozing with flavour! These are just a few traits that describe the delectable Chenin Blanc style. And with a few plantings of the style starting to appear around the Orange Wine Region (stay tuned for new releases) we thought we’d give our current Chenin Blanc offerings a well-deserved plug:
Brash Higgins CHN Chenin Blanc 2024
“All textural, saline, minerally, distinct. Lemon verbena, lemon-ginger tea, ginger, papaya, quince, preserved lemon. A vibrant personality. Honey, quinine, apple, straw, fennel, celery root, and more.”
MMAD Chenin Blanc 2023
“The wine combines a fine-ness from the whole bunch pressed component with more texture from the crushed fruit, and an array of characters including citrus peel, cumquat, hessian, sea spray and a hint of lanolin.”
Dune TÉNÉRÉ Chenin Blanc 2024
“Aromas of peach skin, preserved lemons, brine and almond. The palate is defined by the waxy texture and fine chalky tannin which makes it a very interesting food wine. The palate has plenty of pears, lemon barley, saline and tonic like finish.”
