"This winery hit the bull's eye with its 2014 Chenin Blanc. It offers up a fresh, lively nose of spring flowers, nectarines, caramelized melons, honeysuckle, mango and white peach. Fresh, dry, beautifully fruited, pure and long, it should provide plenty of pleasure over the next year. - Robert Parker"

"Floral tones of peony, honeysuckle and verbena are upfront on the nose of this pretty white wine, with core fruit tones of pink apple and sweet citrus. The palate is bright and clean, with easygoing fruit flavors and superb acidic lift that cumulates in an immensely refreshing close. Drink now."

"A fresh, crisp style, with a fleck of herb detail amid the green plum, lime zest and kiwi flavors. Shows nice zip through the finish. Drink now. - James Molesworth"

"The 2018 Chenin Blanc from Riebeek Cellars in Swartland offers a classic feel in its pear and orchard fruits, notes of dried hay, medium body, and building minerality. It has classic Chenin Blanc character, good acidity and freshness, and it sells for a song."
