DeMorgenzon Reserve Chenin Blanc 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Stellenbosch
R500
‘Aristocratic, assured, brimming with generously ripe stonefruit, follows impressive form. Seamless & focused, with brilliant acid seam, lees fatness, minimal oak influence despite barrel ferment & maturation’ – Platter’s Guide, 5*(97/100)
‘Right back on form in 2022, DeMorgenzon's Reserve Chenin Blanc is rich, full-bodied but very well balanced, showing restrained 10% new wood, peach, yellow apple and citrus zest flavours, some patisserie sweetness and the drive and energy that are a feature of the site. Satisfyingly dry and long on the palate. 2025-30’ – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 95/100

| Producer information | DeMorgenzon was originally a section of Uiterwyk, one of the oldest farms in South Africa. It was purchased in 2003 by Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum who intricately studied the land and climate in order to establish the best varietal blocks and vineyards. DeMorgenzon means ‘the morning sun,’ since its location of 200m to 400m above sea level, is the first to see the rising sun. The 224 acre property is known for its beautiful gardens and wildflowers which grow between the vineyards. DeMorgenzon is firmly entrenched as one of the best Stellenbosch producers of Chenin Blanc. Their DeMorgenzon Reserve, with its many ‘best in class’ awards, attests to this. However, it is their ultra-premium The Divas Chenin Blanc that raises the bar. |
