More about full-bodied white wines
Typical of these rich white wines from South Africa are aromas of ripe stone fruit, tropical fruits and citrus notes, complemented by subtle hints of vanilla, butter, nuts and oak, especially in barrel-aged wines. Grape varieties such as Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and high-quality white blends exemplify rich, structured and opulent white wines with a long, elegant finish.
Thanks to their richness, harmonious acidity and creamy mouthfeel, these wines are considered particularly expressive, complex and pleasure-driven.
