This internationally acclaimed competition recognises excellence in Chenin Blanc across a variety of styles, and Perdeberg’s achievement stands as a shining example of the versatility, quality, and craftsmanship behind its Chenin Blanc portfolio.
Gold medal-winning wines
The following wines were awarded gold medals:
1. Endura Single Vineyard Chenin Blanc
Ripe stone fruit, citrus, and lemon aromas lead to a rich palate with fresh acidity and a mineral finish. This expressive wine pairs beautifully with fish, poultry, or spicy curries.
2. G.O.A.T Chenin Blanc
A bold nose of white pear, quince, and ripe tropical fruit is followed by a rich, zesty palate with notes of citrus. A refreshing yet complex wine, perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood paella, creamy pastas or pizza.
3. The Dry Land Collection Fortitude Fortified Chenin Blanc
This indulgent fortified style bursts with dried apricot, ripe yellow fruit, and hints of litchi, peach, and honeycomb. Full and fresh on the palate, it pairs beautifully with puddings, cheese platters, or a comforting bowl of butternut soup.
4. The Dry Land Collection Longevity Natural Sweet Chenin Blanc
Proof of Chenin Blanc’s remarkable versatility, this wine delights with marmalade, honeycomb, and a touch of ginger on the nose. The palate is viscous and lush. Ideal with desserts like koeksisters, matured cheeses, or other sweet treats.
5. Vineyard Collection Cap Classique Chenin Blanc
Fresh and vibrant with green pear, Granny Smith apple, lime, and grapefruit aromas. A crisp minerality and biscuit finish make this Cap Classique a natural choice as an aperitif or paired with oysters and fresh seafood. Serve well chilled.
