Huntington Beach, CAÂ Â est.1993
The Cederberg Chenin Blanc 2025 leads with a pronounced nose of winter melon, ripe nectarine, tropical fruit, and distinctive Cape gooseberry aromas. The palate offers soft, accessible acidity with a mouth-coating texture that mirrors the aromatics, creating a gentle ‘halo effect’ from the first encounter to the lingering clean finish.

As good as youthful chenin can be, unoaked 25 (88 pts) tastes of crisp green apples, the sweet fruit enriched by lees ageing & lengthened on mouthwatering, tangily dry finish.
Just 250 kilometres from Cape Town, you will find the highest wine farm in the Western Cape. Benefiting from diverse soil types, unpolluted air and free-flowing crystal-clear water, Cederberg Wines’ highest vineyards are situated at 1 036 metres above sea level in a virus-free growing area. The climate is cool continental with a dramatic temperature drop at night in summer and snow-capped mountains in winter.
Grapes are hand-harvested in the early morning at 20–23.5 °B. The winemaking process is done in reductive conditions using dry ice and carbon dioxide gas. Grapes are crushed at 8 °C with approximately five to eight hours of skin contact before a light pressing. Two days of juice settling is followed by racking and the addition of selected yeast. Fermentation is at 11 °C for approximately 24 days.
Finally, the wine is further matured on the fine lees for an additional four months with a monthly bâtonnage before the final blending and bottling.
