2025 Simonsig Starting Blocks Chenin Blanc

Winemaker‘s Description
The wine opens with fresh, vibrant aromas of green apple and lime, offering immediate
brightness on the nose. As it aerates, delicate notes of white pear begin to emerge,
giving way to ripe guava that adds depth and tropical appeal. The palate is well
textured with a subtle pithy grip, a rounded mid-palate, and a clean, refreshing finish. 
Serving Suggestion
This wine pairs wonderfully with a beetroot and citrus salad topped with goat’s cheese,
and complements steamed mussels in a garlic cream sauce. It is also an excellent
choice alongside whole chicken cooked over the fire with root vegetables. However, if
all else fails, it can be enjoyed on its own for pure pleasure.
