2023 Zevenwacht Chenin Blanc from Stellenbosch

A Fresh South African Chenin Blanc

The 2023 Zevenwacht Chenin Blanc is a characterful white wine from Stellenbosch, South Africa. Chenin Blanc has a long history in South Africa and is one of the country’s most important white grape varieties. The warm climate is balanced by cooling influences, resulting in a beautiful blend of ripe fruit and crisp acidity.

Zevenwacht is located on the Stellenbosch Wine Route and produces wines that highlight the fruit and character of the grape variety. This Chenin Blanc combines an approachable, fruity style with enough freshness and structure to make it a versatile choice for the dinner table.

Aroma & taste

Expressive aromas of citrus, pear, peach, and ripe stone fruit are complemented by subtle tropical and floral notes. On the palate, the wine is juicy and fresh, with a pleasant concentration of fruit and a well-balanced finish.

Serving & foodpairing

Serve at around 8–10°C. Delicious as an aperitif and a great accompaniment to shellfish, grilled fish, salads, poultry, light Asian dishes, and mild cheeses.

Storage potential

This Chenin Blanc is particularly appealing for its fresh, fruity character and does not need to be cellared for a long time. The 2023 vintage is currently at an excellent stage for drinking and, if stored properly, will remain in fine form for several more years.
