Badenhorst Skool Steen Chenin Blanc 2019

SG$80.00
SG$80.00

The Skool Chenin blanc is a single vineyard planted in the 1960’s on Kalmoesfontein right next to an old community school (hence the name ‘Skool’). The soil is composed of sandy, decomposed granite with many big rocks in between. This is the first vintage we bottled the wine from this parcel separately. The wine expresses typical Chenin blanc flavours found in the wines of Swartland. Yellow stone fruit, good texture, freshness, and concentration of fruit is the norm from this site. This wine is not released annually. 1520 bottles made. #NEWSA

SG$70.00
SG$70.00

The nose shows a hint of reduction before stone fruit, dried herbs, a little waxy character, earth and spice while the palate has great depth and texture for a wine with an alcohol of just 12.5%.

SG$70.00
SG$70.00

'Arrival 25 May or earlier This wine, incorporating grapes from seven separate vineyards on various soils with planting dates ranging from 1968 to 1985, just gets more and more refined. The nose shows pear, peach and citrus to go with potpourri and a touch of flinty reduction. The palate, meanwhile, is pure and concentrated with lively acidity and a saline finish. Each component part combining seamlessly, the end-result is a wine of particular poise and luminosity.' – Christian Eedes, Winemag.co.za, 96/100. #NEWSA

De Morgenzon "Divas" Chenin Blanc 2020 [TA 96]

SG$125.00
SG$125.00

Tim Atkin 96 points. A wine of incredible density and precision. A hint of yellow suggests sun ripened berries, with a bright green hue promising freshness. Aromas of lime blossom, white peach, caramel and brioche are followed by a poised palate with an extremely concentrated core. This is a great wine that will reward decades of cellaring. A true statement of DeMorgenzon’s dedication to excellence. Very limited production.   VINIFICATION AND MATURATION The grapes were picked in two different passes from a particular part of the old vineyard. The grapes were handpicked in the early morning hours, with bunch selection done in the...

De Morgenzon Chenin Blanc METHODE CAP CLASSIQUE 2021 [TA 91]

SG$42.00
SG$42.00

Tim Atkin 91 points. Honey, white peach and hints of pineapple are complemented by savory notes of roasted almond and toasted brioche. A fine mousse and refreshing acidity provides a remarkably refreshing drinking experience. Chenin Blanc grapes are handpicked and harvested for freshness and acidity at between 19.5o and 20.5o Balling. Grapes are pre-cooled and then whole bunch-pressed with the juice allowed to settle naturally. Half of the wine is naturally fermented in stainless steel tank, with fermentation being stopped to retain a certain percentage of the grapes own sugar. The barrel fermented portion is allowed to ferment naturally to...

De Morgenzon DMZ Chenin Blanc 2023 [Top 10 WM]

SG$36.00
SG$36.00

Top Ten Chenin, Winemag. The bright nose displays fine Chenin attributes of floral and citrus aromas. The crisp, refreshing palate has succulence and weight providing a finish with texture and good length. Sourced exclusively from DeMorgenzon’s own Chenin Blanc vineyards. Southerly and South-Easterly aspect vines overlooking False Bay are managed for optimal exposure to gentle morning sunshine. Granitic soils result in grapes with excellent natural acidity and flavour concentration, a trait further enhanced by our intentionally low yields. Cool, early morning harvested grapes were destemmed, crushed, then pressed and the juice settled...

De Morgenzon Stellenbosch Chenin Blanc Reserve 2021 [TA 94]

SG$56.00
SG$56.00

Tim Atkin 94 points. This show stopping white displays effusive aromas of white flower, stone fruit, honey and toast which erupt into opulent flavours of pear, orange blossom, caramel and spice. It’s a world class wine offering that strikes a brilliant balance between lush fruit and crisp, mouth-watering acidity.   DeMorgenzon’s Chenin Blanc comes from low-yielding vines planted in 1972, which were originally planted as bush vines but recently lifted onto trellises. The vines are planted in decomposed granite soils, at altitudes of 250 to 300 meters above sea level. Close proximity to False Bay ensures cooling breezes in the...

Klein Constantia Vin de Constance 2019 [JS 97] 500ml

SG$100.00
SG$100.00

James Suckling 97 points. Bright, medium to deep gold hue, showing focused and pure aromas of honeysuckle, fresh vanilla, lemon tart, dried mango, ginger and a hint of saffron. Certainly quite sweet, but not unctuous, with the natural, effortless acidity managing to balance the lushness. Intense, yet scented and naturally expressive. Persistent finish. You crave for a second glass if you drink it now, but you can also hold it for a decade in your cellar. #NEWINT

Sadie Family Rotsbank Chenin Blanc 2022 (Wine Mag 93) - First Release

SG$126.00
SG$126.00

"This 2022 Rotsbank bottling displays flinty, almost crushed eggshell aromas with grapefruit and more tropical aspects once the initial minerality of the site gave way in the aromas. The wine is incredibly concentrated on the aromatics; the same concentration follows through on the palate. The tannins have massive tension, and the wine’s substantial acidity and dry finish suggest a wine that will only benefit much from time in the bottle. This very restrained and firm wine will pair exceptionally well with shellfish." Wine Magazine

SG$126.00
SG$126.00

"From a Swartland vineyard co-planted to Chenin Blanc and Palamino. Matured for 12 months in acacia and oak foudres. Top notes of hay and potpourri before pear and peach. Dense fruit matched by a good line of acidity, the finish pithy. Direct and surprisingly forceful – alcohol is 13.4%" Wine Magazine

Sadie Family Skurfberg 2022 (Wine Mag 93)

SG$126.00
SG$126.00

From Citrusdal Mountain Chenin Blanc. Matured for 12 months in big-format oak casks. Citrus and peach plus hints of potpourri and hay on the nose. The palate is dense with punchy acidity and a savoury finish. Alcohol is lower than usual at 13.08% and the wine currently comes across as a little incomplete and lacking in detail – time in bottle will be revealing. Wine Magazine

Sadie Family Voetpad 2022 (Wine Magazine 98/100)

SG$166.00
SG$166.00

"From a Swartland field blend of Chenin Blanc, Palomino, Semillon Blanc and Gris. Matured for 12 months in acacia and oak foudres. Haunting aromatics of pear, peach, citrus, flowers, hay and earth. The palate has lovely fruit purity but equally is not short of weight and texture, the finish possessing a slight but not unpleasant bitterness. Great focus and drive. Alc: 13.34%.
