Chenin Blanc is a white wine that is made from the Chenin Blanc grape variety, which is native to the Loire Valley in France but is now grown in many other parts of the world, including South Africa and the United States.
Chenin Blanc is a versatile wine that can be made in a range of styles, from dry to sweet, and still or sparkling. It has a pale yellow colour and a range of fruit flavours, including green apple, pear, quince, and citrus, as well as floral and honey notes.
Dry Chenin Blanc has a high acidity and a medium body, with a crisp and refreshing finish. Sweet Chenin Blanc has a lower acidity and a fuller body, with a range of fruit flavours and a honey-like sweetness. Chenin Blanc also has a unique mineral character that can be attributed to the soil in which it is grown.
