David & Nadia Plat'bos

A Chenin Blanc that shows what old vines on granite can achieve: dense and concentrated, but with an acidity structure that keeps everything in balance.

David & Nadia Sadie are among the defining names in South African viticulture. Their winery in the Swartland stands for artisanally vinified white wines from old vine stocks – far removed from the industrial mainstream of the Cape region. The Plat'bos has been their third single-vineyard Chenin since 2018 and comes from vines planted in 1981 on weathered granite soil. The same vines also flow into the regular David & Nadia cuvée – here they stand alone in the glass.

On the nose, ripe yellow pear, candied citrus zest, and a distinct hint of anise. The palate is full and oily in texture, as old Chenin vines on mineral-rich subsoil produce – but no heaviness: the lively acidity and a stony, almost salty intensity keep the wine slender and long. The finish draws through with spicy freshness.

Serving temperature: 11–13 °C. Pairs well with grilled monkfish with caper butter, chicken with lemon and olives, or a strong goat cheese.
