One of Ontario’s best selling Western Cape chenin blanc’s is this perennial stalwart from local négoce heroes Will Prehomme and Nicholas Pearce. Together with Alex Dale and Jacques de Klerk at Radford Dale they blend and mix parcels, tanks and barrels of chenin to concoct this imminently drinkable blanc. This is the aromatic one but also to date the most amenable of them all. The energy in acids are lowered while the drinkability factor raises the bar. Accessible to all now, even if that had previously not been the case. Drink 2020-2023. Tasted May 2020.

2019 is a stellar vintage for the Pearce-Predhomme old vine chenin made by Radford Dale, always a terrific value and even more so here. There's an uncommon freshness and liveliness for South Africa/Stellenbosch, with fruit spanning the white-fleshed and citrus spectrum, and acids that drive additional sips. But neither is it just simple white wine; there's genuine depth and concentration on offer. Complexity should build with a year or two in the cellar, though it's hard to resist now to be sure. Top notch value. Tasted May 2020.

This old vine, wild fermented blend of syrah and cinsault was made at Stellenbosch's Radford Dale for Toronto-based négociants Nicolas Pearce and Will Predhomme. It has very generous syrah-based pepper, caper and plummy fruit with classic Cape overlay of tar and iron oxide/rust minerality. It is medium weight, firm yet juicy and fresh on the palate, thanks to the cinsault. Love this ambiance. And the flavours stay true and hit excellent length. Tasted August 2020.

Just as it was in 2016 so too did 2017 procure an early harvest with cool nights and diurnal temperature fluctuations for linear and zippy fruit quality. These were the comments made by winemaker Jacques de Klerk back in September 2018 with respect to blending Nicholas Pearce and Will Predhomme's chenin blanc. They apply to syrah and cinsault because the wild-eyed energy and near feral activity of this wine makes us think about red wine in this manner. It's as if the whole bunches are still percolating and remain unresolved. The freshness and beauteous volatility persist with abandon. Chill this Koffieklip soil bred blend and let your inhibitions go. Drink 2020-2023. Tasted August 2020.

Neil Ellis made Groenekloof famous and has been rewarded with a successful 100,000-litre Sauvignon Blanc brand. You can almost smell the Atlantic in this tangy, grapefruity white that has undertones of passion fruit and green herbs. 2019-22

About the Winery
Radford Dale
Radford Dale and The Winery of Good Hope are two brands made by the same people, in the same winery. The team behind these wineries has been an industry leader since the 1990s in chemical free farming, and more recently in low and no sulfur winemaking. They are a founding member of PIWOSA (Premium Independent Wineries of South Africa) which sets ethical, environmental and social uplift standards. Recognizing the social inequality present in South Africa Radford Dale has also set up a trust called Land of Hope to help facilitate bright futures for children, focusing heavily on education.
Alex Dale who owns and manages both projects is an Englishman who grew up spending summers in Burgundy, France. He moved there in his late teens to follow a passion for winemaking and also opened a wine bar in Beaune. He lived in Burgundy for many years before moving to South Africa in 1998, starting Radford Dale with Ben Radford, an Australian. The idea was to produce wines using modern techniques and technology with a healthy respect for tradition, something Alex came to understand well while living in Burgundy.
Wines are made with minimal intervention in order to best express each vineyard’s individuality.

The Renaissance hails from a single vineyard on the Helderberg that also supplies the core of the Vinum Chenin. Made with a Burgundian sensibility by Jacques de Klerk, it's layered and complex, with refined oak, amazing concentration and palate length and a creamy, savoury finish. Drink date: 2019-2029.

‘Intro to the Swartland, rather than entry-level wine.’ From two granite sites on Paardeberg, just 10% oaked in new-livery 2019. Lively & bright, mulled pear & terracotta earthiness, long mineral finish. 2018 untasted.

The 2019 Kloof Street Chenin Blanc underwent a natural ferment with minimal SO2 addition. It has a knockout bouquet for an entry-level Chenin, featuring beautiful orange blossom and apricot scents mixed with hints of lemon thyme. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and impressive tension and energy. Poised all the way through to the finish, this is a superb Kloof Street Chenin Blanc that serves as a perfect introduction to Chris and Andrea Mullineux’s wines.

First made in 2013, Granite has established itself as one of the best Chenins in the Cape, especially so in a vintage like 2017. Focused, floral and intense, with incredible grip and precision, creamy lees, stylish oak and good length.

This has both rich and racy elements, with meringue and brioche notes leading off, followed by a mix of peach, lemon peel, creamed yellow apple and quinine flavors. Everything knits nicely through the light, salted butter–gilded finish. Drink now through 2023.

The 2017 Granite Chenin Blanc has a very well defined bouquet with a stricter and more linear set of aromatics that need more coaxing from the glass than the 2016. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity - perhaps a more refined version of the 2016 – and features veins of ginger toward the poised and quite persistent finish.

Amongst oldest vineyards in Paardeberg, deep soils allow dryland farming, minimal stress. Complex layers, grapefruit & almond in 2017, more minerality & saline acidity than 2016, shows unwavering refinement, assurance; chenin excellence.
