Roodekrantz Die Kliphuis Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2022 Bottle size: 750ml
South Africa, Swartland
R370
‘From a vineyard in Paardeberg planted in 1977 on granite. Pear, peach, citrus, hay and herbs on the nose while the palate has a striking tension about it – a dense core of fruit is matched by snappy acicdity before a finish that manages to be pithy in texture and saline in flavour. Direct and focused.’ – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 95/100
'Appropriately stony and intense, this old-vine Chenin Blanc comes from a cooler, south- facing slope on sand and decomposed granite soils. Subtly wooded in older oak, it has aniseed and chamomile aromas and a steely palate of citrus and green apple. 2025-29' – Tim Atkin MW, SA Special Report 2024, 92/100
‘The Die Kliphuis Chenin Blanc 2022 boasts a pithy and mouth-watering character, featuring captivating aromas of white flowers and fennel. Upon tasting, the wine exhibits a lively and invigorating acidity, revealing delicate notes of white peach, crisp apple, and zesty citrus fruits on the palate.’ – Winemaker
