Lion's KopChenin Blanc 2021

About this wine

Lion's Kop's Chenin Blanc from Stellenbosch is a brilliant introduction to South Africa's signature white grape. This 2021 vintage captures the essence of what makes Cape winemaking so exciting, offering exceptional quality that punches well above its weight.

On the nose, expect vibrant notes of ripe pear and green apple, complemented by hints of honey and white flowers. The palate is fresh and lively, with a beautiful balance between crisp acidity and a subtle creamy texture that adds depth without heaviness. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a gentle touch of citrus that lingers pleasantly.

This versatile white wine pairs beautifully with grilled fish, roasted chicken, or creamy pasta dishes. It's also a fantastic match for Asian cuisine, particularly Thai curries or Vietnamese spring rolls. Serve slightly chilled at around 10-12°C to bring out its vibrant fruit character and refreshing finish.
