Chenin Blanc is a white grape originating from the Loire Valley in France, but has recently found more of a home in the coastal vineyards of South Africa. From dry white, to sweet dessert and even sparkling wines, Chenin Blanc is a truly versatile grape. Rich, deeply aromatic and an absolute must-try.
