Vintage Report

The 2023 vintage in South Africa is considered excellent with a score of 90 points on the Robert Parker scale. The wines from this year are still very youthful and have a vibrant character that can develop further.

The best-selling wine, from the Soopjeshoogte winery. And we understand why. With a grape like Chenin Blanc, you can't go wrong in South Africa. Soopjeshoogte has this grape planted extensively in its dazzling vineyards. The name Soopjeshoogte has a somewhat fairytale-like composition. Soopje was the nickname of a popular and beloved winemaker who worked in South Africa at the beginning of the last century. He had beautiful vineyards situated around the imposing Helderberg Mountains, just east of Cape Town. Because the vineyards are situated slightly higher, the name Soopjeshoogte was born. This name is still synonymous with excellent South African wines.

The vineyards full of Chenin Blanc

Chenin Blanc originates from the beautiful Loire Valley wine region. Its central Loire Valley, in particular, produces incredible wines. Condrieu is perhaps the most elegant example. However, the power of Chenin Blanc was boundless. It didn't take long for Chenin Blanc to be discovered by South African winemakers. The perfect terroir and wonderful climate proved to be ideal for Chenin Blanc. This was also discovered by the Soopjeshoogte winery. Because the vineyards are situated somewhat higher and relatively close to the ocean, it is a bit cooler in the vineyards, especially at night. This allows Soopjeshoogte's Chenin Blanc to develop exceptionally well.

Impressions of Soopjeshoogte Chenin Blanc

A flawless, well-executed Chenin Blanc that many would envy. You'll rarely find such quality at such an attractive price. Because the winemaker at Soopjeshoogte adapts his winemaking, Soopjeshoogte Chenin Blanc is wonderfully fresh and pleasant in aroma and taste. You smell and taste refined tropical fruit. Soft nuances of mango tickle your taste buds. A refreshing citrus finish completes Soopjeshoogte Chenin Blanc. We immediately understand why Chenin Blanc is so beloved in South African winemaking.
