This vibrant Simonsig Chenin Blanc displays a brilliant clear colour with a green tinge. A burst of tropical fruit aromas ranging from melon, passion fruit and pear to fresh lime. A well-structured palate with layers of citrus and tropical fruits. Refreshing acidity and good length makes this an exceptional summer wine. A true expression of Simonsig terroir.

Beetroot and citrus salad with goat’s cheese, steamed mussels with a garlic cream sauce, whole chicken on the fire with root vegetables and, if all else fails, just on its own for pure enjoyment.

Simonsig Chenin Blanc is also currently available by the glass in The Wine Press, Dundee's finest Wine Bar.

About the Producer

Named after its dramatic views of the Simonsberg Mountain, the estate is situated in Stellenbosch, one of South Africa’s premier wine regions, 45 km east of Cape Town. At the helm are the Malan family, descendants of the French Huguenot Jacques Malan who first arrived in the Cape in 1688, although it was the late Frans Malan who pioneered much of what the company stands for today. The Malan family are one of South Africa’s most reputable wine producers. The three Malan brothers have passionate commitment towards quality and innovation. Simonsig wines are sold in more than 40 countries world-wide, including the United Kingdom, USA and Kenya.
