91 pts Tim Atkin MW 2022

Even the basic wines from Chris and Andrea Mullineux ooze precision, focus and balance. This is made with Chenin grapes from the Paardeberg and Roundstone and is drier and less tropical than previous bottlings, with quince and yellow apple fruit and a thread of granitic freshness. Very drinkable. 2022-27

Fresh and well-knit, with a slightly chalky texture, offering ripe and juicy melon, nectarine and clementine fruit, plus accents of lime zest, fleur de sel and honeycomb.

Winemaker Notes

Grapes for our Kloof Street Chenin Blanc come from vineyard parcels on a variety of soils in different parts of the Swartland. The wine is part tank and part barrel fermented.

Pale straw in colour, this wine has a nose of sun ripened pears and wet granite. The palate has a vibrant acidity balanced by a soft, round texture and some pithy character. The wine has a fresh, mineral finish. Best enjoyed young and served at 10 to 12 ˚C.
