The Wine
Looking for a revitalising change from your usual diet of Pinot Grigio and Sauvignon? This fine Chenin Blanc from the award winning and historic Spier Estate ticks all the boxes. Chenin hails originally from the Loire and is one of the world’s most versatile varieties. It produces still, sparkling, dry, sweet and everything in between and does them very well indeed. It is the most widely planted variety in South Africa and while it was once taken for granted there, it is now receiving the attention it deserves. Quality has never been higher. In the hands of Paarl born Anton Swarts, Drakenskloof Chenin Blanc delivers a lovely balance of lemony freshness and ripe hints of pineapple. Enjoy on its own, with a spicy stir-fry or with fish.
