Wine Review: Raats bush vine chenin blanc is blended to perfection!

This white wine from Bruwer Raats is a hidden gem that is worth every penny. 

Known as South Africa's king of chenin, Raats has once again proven his expertise with this exceptional wine.


Made from 45-year-old vines, which are free-standing and not trellised, this wine boasts concentrated flavors that are a result of the labor-intensive care these vines require. 

The chenin blanc is elegant and surprisingly complex, with notes of pear, orange blossom, spice, and a touch of honey. 

The oak adds depth to the wine, making it full-bodied yet delicate enough to pair with fish dishes or creamy curries. 

Don't miss out on this treat - grab a bottle and chill it in your fridge for a delightful experience.

ABV: 13%
