Chenin Blanc

Chenin Blanc or Chenin is one of the world’s most versatile grape varieties. The Chenin Blanc grape is capable of producing some of the sweetest, longest lasting whites, and some of South Africa’s most prized sparkling wine. Currently Chenin Blanc is South Africa’s most planted vine. There is far more planted in South Africa than in the Pineau de la Loire region, in its native France. The Chenin grape’s high acidity allows for long aging and a dry or sweet taste, producing sweet whites, refreshing sparkling wines and even nectar-like dessert wines. Chenin Blanc, like many whites, pairs well with white meats, salads and fish.
