2023 Old Vine Chenin Blanc, Brookdale Estate 90+ Points bright cherry and blue fruitsThe Golden Sage Golden straw in colour, this Chenin is rich and textural. Aromas of quince, baked apple, and citrus curd mingle with chamomile, almond, and a subtle waxy note.

For when: dinner deserves something thoughtful and refined. Pairs with: roast chicken, creamy seafood
