A luminescent gold wine expressing a myriad of tropical, peach, pineapple, apple and honeysuckle on the nose, layered with a touch of oatmeal and subtle oak spice. The palate follows through with a lavish concentrated fruit core and citrus marmalade, that gives way to a rich, yet elegant and coated mouthfeel. The finish is seamless with a lingering, complex aftertaste as indicative of its old bush vine origins
Kleinood Tamboerskloof Chenin Blanc (buurman)
A collection of rare Tamboerskloof wines
inspired by the exceptional grapes that cross our path.
“The charm of these wines lies in the quality of the grapes,
the care of the hands that create them,
and the soul of the places that they come from.”
Each wine comes in a recycled paper bag,
tied at the top with a thinly cut tyre tube.
This is a pale straw-coloured wine has a lively nose,
starting with wild flower and white pear.

This Chenin Blanc elegantly marries its character with newfound richness, making it a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking a nuanced and captivating experience.
Survivor Chenin Blanc Reserve
Rich green-gold colour with flakes of olive. The fragrance of dusty lemon and lanolin, dried herbs and freshly picked dewy lemon leaves leap from the glass. The palate is finely textured with creamy orchard fruit, underpinned by subtle vanilla oak. Lush and bright with great palate weight, rounded and harmonious with a dry, lingering preserved lemon and spice finish. Beautifully balanced and focussed – a Chenin triumph!
