False Bay Slow Chenin Blanc

The False Bay Slow Chenin Blanc is a bright yellow white wine from South Africa. Usually, Chenin Blanc wines from South Africa are rather mass-produced products. With this wine, however, it has been possible to work out the peculiarities of the Chenin Blanc grape, which sets it apart from the masses. Its intense aromas of white peach and fragrant stone fruits offer an inviting bouquet. On the palate, its fine fruit acidity is pleasantly noticeable. Aromas of apricots and nectarines appear in the finish.

The Winery

Waterkloof Wine Estate

Waterkloof – here everything revolves around the vineyards. Organic and biodynamic methods, inspired by sustainable practices of the Old World, keep the vines in balance. Cows, sheep, goats, chickens – they all provide natural fertilizer, help with weed control, and make chemicals superfluous.

The soils are free of chemicals, enriched with plant extracts, fungi, and bacteria from their own compost. The vines root deeper than five meters – real terroir in the glass.

The vineyards are located five kilometers from the sea, at an altitude of 270 to 300 meters. Sandstone soils with medium-sized stones store water and ensure balance. 21-year-old vines that deliver intense character.
