2023 Vintage
Dubbed ‘the pinot noir of the Swartland,’ it’s made from 36 year old dry farmed grapes grown in the south of the Swartland. Cinsault, once relegated to the sidelines, as the parent of pinotage, has launched a comeback as the favored son of South Africa’s winelands.
Characteristically light in colour & low in tannin, there is a certain gentleness to this wine. A crunchy character with dark cherries, raisins, strawberries & minty tannins.

Orign: W.O. Swartland
Components: 100% Chenin Blanc
Soil/Climate: Decomposed granite & shale / dry, unirrigated bush vines
Tasting Notes: “100% Chenin Blanc drawn from unirrigated, dry-farmed bush vines. Handpicked & fermented using exclusively naturally occurring, wild yeasts. This vintage’s lighter straw colour points towards ease and flexibility on the palate. The nose brings significant stone fruit & floral notes immediately, eliciting thoughts of peach & nectarine. The palate is round and fleshy, pushing forward a vivacious nectarine character, which is tempered by a soft, broad creaminess. There is Brightness & acidity from start to finish.”

Maybe we were going out on a limb when we thought it was a good idea to give away half of anything we make, but the truth is none of this would be possible without the men & women whose hard makes our wine possible. Thanks to their long days & early mornings, Lubanzi is as good as it is. So feel free to keep drinking, knowing that we’re doing everything we can to make our wines the right way.
