Thorne and Daughters Cat’s Cradle Chenin Blanc is a very clear and bright expression of Chenin blanc, with aromas of oat cakes, malt and wet pebbles. In the mouth the texture is fine and long with notes of clotted cream and white nectarines.
Swartland Chenin blanc needs no introduction, having long assumed its place among the world’s key expressions of Chenin blanc. Langkloof, where the grapes are sourced for this wine is a 40 year old bush vine Chenin blanc vineyard planted on the granite slopes of the Paardeberg.

string(526) "Vouvray, Savennières and Montlouis are villages in France famous for their superb expressions of Chenin Blanc. Add to this list Stellenbosch in South Africa and the picture is complete. A waxy, citrus and cream styled white variety with stunning acidity and natural balance, it can produce deeply-flavoured wines from dry through to botrytis-affected sweet styles. It is a natural in every sense and in the hands of the greatest growers in South Africa shows the shimmering potential of the Rainbow Nation on the world stage."
