- 100% Chenin Blanc
- Sourced from 3 sustainably farmed vineyards in different parts of the Swartland: One parcel of 40 year-old Chenin planted in the stony Shale and Schist based soils of Kasteelberg, and two parcels of 40+ year-old dry land, bush vine Chenin grown in the decomposed Granite soils of the Paardeberg
- Hand harvested
- The grapes were chilled in our cold room then pressed whole-bunch, which allowed for the juice to settle overnight
- The juice was then racked to tank and older French oak barrels for fermentation with indigenous yeasts and this process lasted approximately six weeks
- The barrels were then racked, blended with the tank fermented portion and bottled

"The entry-level Mullineux 2024 Swartland Kloof Street Chenin Blanc is bright and approachable, offering fresh apple, honeycomb and lemon blossom with a lively, clean finish. Old-vine Chenin Blanc is presented here in a pure stainless steel expression that emphasizes drinkability. Sourced largely from Paardeberg granite vineyards in the Swartland, the wine captures the sunny fruit generosity of the region while remaining bone dry and seriously food-friendly thanks in part to the"

"This creamy white has aromas of honeysuckle, lemon rind, white grapefruit, baked apples and crushed stones. It,s medium-bodied with a stony, cool freshness. Sustainable. Drink now. Screw cap."

"Lovely purity of fruit here, showing notes of nectarines, sliced apples and crushed stones on the nose. It™s creamy and medium- to full-bodied on the palate. Solid chenin blanc. From old vines on granite soils in the Paardeberg and in shale/schist soils in Kasteelberg. Drink now. Screw cap."

"Bright and expressive, with an appealing range of pineapple, kiwifruit, tangerine peel, Marcona almond and ginger biscuit. Well-cut, with herb, spice and mineral notes on the zesty finish. Drink now through 2028. 4,750 cases made, 1,576 cases imported."A.N."
