The largest producer of Chenin Blanc, South Africa’s Western Cape is a natural cultivator for the 2023 Prevailing Winds Chenin Blanc Stellenbosch. This dry white wine is brimming with acidity and fruity notes like yellow apple and pear, complemented by floral undertones. The secondary stone fruit notes like peach are harmonious with this wine’s natural minerality and short, crisp finish. This wine is most refreshing as an aperitif or paired with rich cheeses and dishes that have both sweet and sour flavors. Thai food and a zucchini casserole topped with baked goat cheese come to mind. Enjoy this cool and fresh Chenin Blanc, slightly chilled with comfort dishes rich with cheese, fried fish, and sweet and sour chicken. The acidity can surely handle it.
