This is a bona fide stunner—and arguably one of the best white wines you can find from South Africa. Crafted in Bot River by Niels & Penny Verburg and their daughter Alice, it’s 100% Chenin Blanc from organic, dry-farmed vineyards, made with minimal intervention and a passion-first philosophy (“If you’re not having fun, why do it?”)
Extended skin contact (around 25 days) gives it surprising depth of color and texture, but don't call it a funky orange wine—it’s bone-dry, clean, and elegantly focused.
On the nose, think golden apple, pear, and a whiff of salt. The palate is all savory elegance, delivering layers of salty dried fruit, apple, and quince.
Pair with dishes with a mix of brightness and richness—grilled fish, charcuterie, Mediterranean salads with olives and citrus, or a simple roasted chicken with herbs. It’s vibrant, soulful, and absolutely made for joyful, leisurely sipping.
