Grapes are grown on 30+ year old trellised Chenin and 15 year old Viognier in the Coastal region, mainly from Swartland vineyards. The climate is perfect for viticulture with the low rainfall summer months, tempered by cool afternoons and the cold winters allowing the vines to rest and to build up the reserves. Part of the Chenin Blanc is wild yeast fermented and kept on the yeast lees for as long as possible in order to achieve a rounded palate with good fruit concentration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProducer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoutinot South Africa is driven by our passion for discovery and desire to capture the real essence of South Africa in every bottle. It was the simple love of Loire Chenin Blanc that first led us to South Africa in 1994, where we pioneered the wild ferment style that has now been adopted by many producers in this region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince then we have been exploring the country's amazing vineyards to make fabulous wines from specific sites and plots that scream location, location, terroir.. Our home-grown South African winemaking team of JD Rossouw and Ryno Booysen drive the energy and enthuasiam for expressing the loveliest wines from their country, along with Samantha Bailey's expertise in finesse. The key is knowing the characteristics of each plot, understanding the benefits each cultivar can bring, breaking rules and pushing boundaries. We use a combination of knowledge, a love of nature and science to create versatile, expressive and food-friendly wines from a country that has been making wine for 360 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eYear\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e2025\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eCultivar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e75% Chenin Blanc 25% Viognier\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003eSouth Africa\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAlcohol content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12.5% alc vol \u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eUnits of Alcohol per Bottle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e9.37 units\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003eWhite Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eCellaring Potential\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003eAwaiting info\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVegetarian \u0026amp; Vegan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eAllergen Information\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003eContains sulphites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eFood Matches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGrilled prawns with plenty of garlic and chilli, whole lemon sole fried in butter and also delicate freshwater fish dishes.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003eSwartland\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 41.6016%;\"\u003eAppellation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 55.6641%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWO Coastal Region\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Boutinot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47355216429347,"sku":null,"price":9.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/5118\/8278\/files\/2023PercheronCheninBlancViognier.png?v=1705600083","url":"https:\/\/vinofandango.co.uk\/products\/2025-percheron-chenin-blanc-viognier","provider":"Vino Fandango","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
