Miles Mossop Chapters Chenin Blanc

The Miles Mossop Chapters Chenin Blanc comes from the South African wine estate Miles Mossop in Stellenbosch, which stands for wines with strong character and handcrafted wines. Miles Mossop pursues a clear philosophy: he sources grapes from exceptional vineyards, picks them at the optimum point of ripeness and guides them through the natural winemaking process to produce expressive, individual wines of the highest quality - wines that he himself enjoys drinking.

The pure Miles Mossop Chenin Blanc from certified old bush vines - which were planted in 1982 in the Bottelary Ward of Stellenbosch on weathered slate soils - displays a brilliant, deep straw-yellow color. The nose reveals floral notes of orange blossom and honeysuckle, complemented by hints of white peach, yellow fruit and subtle citrus notes. On the palate, the white wine impresses with full, rich fruit, a grippy medium body and a structured finish with roasted almonds and light citrus bitterness.

The grapes are harvested by hand, gently pressed and transferred to 400-liter old French oak barrels for spontaneous fermentation. The wine is then aged sur lie for 11 months with regular lees stirring and undergoes partial malolactic fermentation to develop depth, richness and complexity.

The Miles Mossop Chenin Blanc is an excellent accompaniment to grilled fish, poultry dishes or light Mediterranean dishes.
Served at 8-10 °C, it unfolds its full aroma. An elegant, limited edition wine for special occasions or everyday enjoyment.

Awarded 93 points by Tim Atkin and 4 ½ stars in the Platter's Wine Guide 2025.

Product recommendation

Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc
Chenin Blanc, the white wine full of character, repeatedly achieves outstanding qualities, especially in South Africa. The Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc is the perfect example of this. Some of the grapes used in this white wine come from vines that were planted in 1966, more than 50 years ago. (The second vineyard was planted in 1978) A fascinating aromatic concentration characterizes this white wine from the Stellenbosch region. If you like: With age, you learn more and more to concentrate on the things that matter.Intense fruity notes of pear, grapefruit and peach characterize the bouquet. Harmonious notes of honey and floral tones complete the bouquet. On the palate, the Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc is dry, complex and pleasantly soft, with a stimulating minerality and aromatic depth. The finish is wonderfully fresh and fruity.The Chenin Blanc from the Blaauwklippen Valley, which shimmers in a soft greenish yellow, was mostly matured in concrete eggs and a very small proportion in old oak barrels. Meryl Weaver awards 91 points (4.5 out of 5 stars) for the Waterford Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2020 in John Platter's Wine Guide. Her overall verdict: "Ripe pear & stone fruit with soft, creamy texture from two old vineyards (1966 & 1978). Fermented/matured in concrete egg & 15% in old oak, allowing soft fruit to shine in the softer, rounder 2020."2018 was the first vintage of this white wine. Enjoy it with poultry, fish dishes (salmon) or a fresh seafood salad.

Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Chenin Blanc
The Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Chenin blanc is a white wine with very long ageing potential. The winery gives the wine a lifespan of 15 years under optimal storage conditions. This is partly due to the fact that the grapes come from 40-year-old bush vines and find excellent growing conditions in the Stellenbosch region of South Africa. Fermentation and maturation were carried out using used French oak barrels in order to protect the delicate fruit of the Chenin Blanc. Filtration was deliberately avoided before bottling in order to preserve the aromatic fruit in its entirety.The Family Reserve Chenin blanc from Kleine Zalze has notes of white flowers and quince on the nose. The wine has an intense aroma of apricot, lemon, melon and honey. Extremely complex on the palate with well-integrated oak. A hint of minerality on the finish.The Kleine Zalze Family Reserve Chenin blanc is an excellent accompaniment to food. It complements hearty starters as well as white meat dishes and well-seasoned fish dishes.
