A wine thatâs as beautiful as Cape Town itself. 100% handpicked Chenin Blanc grown in South Africaâs famous Swartland region. Made using a blend of grapes that come from a diverse collection of Swartland soils, with each piece of land putting its own mark on the final product. Made for those warm sunny days that donât seem to end. Â Fair Trade Certified. . 92 points Robert Parker. The Lubanzi 2025 Swartland Chenin Blanc blends fruit from two farms: 25-year-old irrigated trellised vines and 150-year-old dry-farmed bush vines. All fruit is whole-bunch pressed and aged three months on the lees in stainless steel with no oak. The older vines contribute fuller stone fruit notes of peach and apricot with length and texture, while the younger parcel offers brightness of lemon and green apple, meeting harmoniously in the middle. Harvest temperatures in southern Swartland can reach 40 degrees Celsius, making timing crucial to preserve freshness and balance. Chenin Blanc remains a star of South Africa, thriving in granite and shale soils that retain just enough moisture to sustain old vines with deep roots through hot, dry summers. Monica Larner. 90 points James Suckling. Oranges, peaches and baked apples on the nose of this soft and fruity white. Itâs medium-bodied, fleshy and straightforward. Sustainable. Drink now.
