The Wine
Ken Forrester is world renowned for his expertise with Chenin Blanc and has won an enormous number of top awards for them. He was one of the first in the Cape to show just how brilliant this grape could be. Ask him how to make a perfect Chenin, he answers "I wish I knew" and continues "Chenin is the most delicious wine and it is totally at home barefoot or in high heels and a dinner suit." Ken is also a strong advocate for sustainability and care for the community which, together, means everything is done by hand with meticulous care. Stagmanskop is a pure, citrusy Chenin from high vineyards, that look down on the Atlantic and are cooled by strong coastal winds. Enjoy its bright citrus, apple and melon fruit. Great with spicy Asian dishes.
"Lovely fruity and full floral flavour"
