The Huguenot Chenin Blanc 2020
Chenin Blanc has proved itself truly noble in South Africa. This grape travelled the world from its home in France’s Loire to find that the sunshine steeped vineyards of the Western Cape is also an ideal home. Here in fine exuberant, fruity form.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.
