"Impressive value from the reborn Boland Cellar, this mass-market Chenin Blanc uses grapes from shale and granite soils on the Paardeberg. Just off dry at 4.9 grams of residual sugar, it’s a very appealing quaffer, with peach, lemon and yellow apple flavours and appealing underlying grip. 2026-30" – Tim Atkin MW South Africa Report 2026, 90 points

Harvested at 22° Balling in the second half of February, the grapes reached the cellar at optimal ripeness to ensure the varietal flavours are retained. After destemming and crushing, skin contact was allowed for 4 - 6 hours to impart flavour and structure. Cool, slow fermentation is required for three weeks and thereafter the wine is left on the lees for three months, resulting in a balanced balanced wine with rich fullness of flavour. The wine remains in stainless steel tanks until blended and ready for bottling in order to retain its typical fruity freshness.

The vineyards are situated in the Paardeberg and surrounding area of the Paarl Region. Chenin Blanc is Boland Cellar’s signature white grape variety that does particularly well in a warmer area like Paarl which yields Chenin Blanc wines of fruit intensity in a robust and fuller style. Boland Cellar has won the award for Best Chenin Blanc producer in South Africa ten times in recent years. Chenin Blanc is a versatile cultivar, well-adapted to warm weather and resistant to the strong southerly winds prevailing here in summer.
