Cederberg
Cederberg is a high-altitude wine estate in the remote Cederberg Wilderness Area, owned by the Nieuwoudt family for generations. With vineyards surrounded by rugged mountain terrain, the estate is known for Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and other South African wines shaped by altitude, isolation and dramatic growing conditions.
Description
This cool-climate Chenin Blanc renders a refreshing, mouth filling style of wine that leaps from the glass with green melon, cut Granny Smith apple, juicy pear, granadilla (passion fruit) and fresh herbs. Deliciously refreshing on the palate with all the fruit nuances kept in check by the classic Chenin acidity, this wine slides down weightlessly, making reaching for another sip so easy.
Food Pairing
Chenin Blanc loves fish in all its guises. It also partners well with spicy foods, including light curries and peri-peri – and even the delightful bitterness of plump Kalamata olives. The versatility of this cool climate Chenin is one of its key attributes, making this an all-rounder and a wine that your fridge should never be without it.
