About this Item

2023 CWG Chenin Blanc
24 (4 x 6) 750ml

“I love making wine from all these different areas. I believe the more different building blocks you have, the more complex wine you will be able to make.” - Pierre Wahl

100% Chenin Blanc

Wine of Origin: Swartland
Winemaker: Pierre Wahl

This marks the debut of Survivor Wines' Chenin Blanc at the CWG Auction. The wine undergoes 100% natural fermentation, reflecting the commitment to authenticity and minimal intervention. Sourced from a 15-year-old dryland bush vine vineyard, the grapes carry a rich heritage, stemming from the farm where my grandmother's family hails from.

Tasting Notes: The wine offers a captivating complexity, revealing an array of aromas that encompass melon, golden delicious apple, and delicate peach blossom notes. Full-bodied, creamy palate with a lively acid.

Ready for drinking from 2025.
