Buy this wine because it has extreme personality. Since its maiden vintage in 2017 it has helped to showcase the raw talent of the False Bay coast of Stellenbosch - a vital part of the Cape Chenin story. The wine has quite an extreme personality. Even with early picking, this vineyard delivers huge flavour with intense concentration and ripping natural acid.
It pairs great with Seafood platter, seabass, brie or camembert with buttered baguette
