Product Description

The Secretary Bird Chenin Blanc is a crisp and refreshing white wine that embodies the very best of South Africa's Western Cape region. This premium wine captures the essence of the land with its vibrant citrus aromas and flavours of green apple, tropical fruit, and ripe stone fruit. The Chenin Blanc grape, historically famed in the Loire Valley of France, has found a perfect home in South Africa, where it thrives, producing wines of excellent versatility and exceptional quality.

Crafted by Boutinot Wines and expertly made by winemaker JD Rossouw, this wine is a pure expression of the grape, without the influence of oak. The unoaked style preserves the natural freshness and fruitiness of the wine, delivering a balanced combination of zesty citrus and rich tropical notes. It’s the perfect wine for those seeking a crisp, easy-drinking wine with a complex, fruit-forward profile.

The fruit is harvested from small, concentrated berries in the fertile Western Cape vineyards, and the winemaking process is designed to retain the wine's purity. After fermentation on the skins, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is held on its fine lees, which enhances the texture and character before bottling.

Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with food, The Secretary Bird Chenin Blanc offers an elegant and refreshing option for any occasion, making it a wonderful addition to your wine collection.
