Chenin Blanc from South Africa: Indaba Chenin Blanc 2009


Grapes for this crisp, easy-drinking white were sourced from 2 distinct soil types: Table Mountain sandstone, which brings out luscious flavors of honeyed apple, melon and tropical fruit; and decomposed granite, which accentuates Chenin Blanc's citrus and mineral character. An extremely versatile food partner, this crowd-pleaser matches well with a wide variety of dishes, from salads to seafood, mild cheeses to light pasta dishes, sushi to spicy ethnic cuisine. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate recently lauded the Indaba brand for delivering "truly mind-boggling values."
