David & Nadia Chenin Blanc 2023 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Swartland
R435
‘Grapes from eight vineyards, planting dates ranging from 1968 to 1986. Matured for 11 months, 80% in neutral oak and 20% in concrete. Struck-match reduction before peach, lemon and orange plus fynbos and earth. The palate is dense but equally taut – pure fruit and punchy acidity before a dry finish. Most accomplished. Alc: 13%.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 95/100
'"Our bread and butter", is how David Sadie describes this old-vine Chenin Blanc, sourced from eight different sites on the Paardeberg, most of which are on granite. Earthy, stony, layered and refreshing, it offers scents of fennel and lanolin and a palate of citrus, green apple, leesy complexity and a palate-cleansing finish. 2024-30' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 94/100
