Winemaker Notes
Blend: 92% Chenin Blanc, 8% Sauvignon Blanc
Pale yellow in color with a hint of green. On the nose, tinned pineapples, guavas, litchi, lemon and lime aromas are abundant. A clean, lively wine with nuances of nutmeg and cloves. Well-balanced and elegant, but with weight and a powerful follow-through on the palate. Stylistically off-dry and lightly oaked - this is an excellent food wine.
Arresting as a chilled apéritif, but can also partner with shellfish, grilled tuna, lemon and herb roast chicken, vegetable stews, bobotie: South African/Malay dish of baked savory mince served with saffron rice, and lightly spiced dishes.

Vibrant, playful and full of personality, this Chenin from quality producer Mulderbosch is still serious. An earthy, spicy nose flecked with citrus leads into complex but clean flavors of pear and lemon with a minerally finish. Balanced and friendly, and affordable to boot.

Widely recognized as one of South Africa's most iconic producers, Mulderbosch is well-known for its Sauvignon Blanc, Chenin Blanc, Rose and its Bordeaux blend - The Faithful Hound - and is located east of Cape Town in the Stellenbosch Hills. Stellenboxch has a Mediterranean climate that is largely impacted by the confluence of the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, with long, warm summers and cool windy afternoons. Recently acquired by Charles Banks, an American, Mulderbosch has entered an exciting new era of quality. A newly-assembled team promises to re-introduce wine lovers to the many charms of this approachable, easy-drinking, collection of affordable, fun wines. South Africa provokes an unbelieveable platform for making some of the best white wine values in the world.
