Product information "Simonsig Langbult Steen Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2022"
The single vineyard Langbult Steen, whose grapes can bear the "Old Vine" label from this vintage onwards, lends its name to the Simonsig Langbult Steen Old Vine Chenin Blanc. The white wine flows into the glass in a light straw yellow colour that turns lime green at the edge. With its multi-layered aromas of orange blossom, melon, dried apricots and ginger, the Simonsig Langbult Steen Old Vine Chenin Blanc delights the connoisseur. The crisp acidity is noticeable on the palate, which is carried by flavours of pear, lime and green apples. The beautiful minerality and slightly creamy texture make the Simonsig Langbult Steen Old Vine Chenin Blanc a perfect flavour experience. The white wine matured for eleven months in French oak and goes wonderfully with dishes with grilled fish, chicken or cheese. But the white wine is also always a pleasure on its own.

Simonsig for the Wine Lover
Simonsig wine stands for exceptional quality and excites wine lovers worldwide. The winemakers apply laborious cultivation methods at the wine slopes and use modern cellar technology to produce the best wine possible. They also make sure that a Simonsig wine reflects its terroir as well as the taste that is typical for the grape variety.
Simonsig Located Ideally
The winery Simonsig is located 45 kilometres away from Cape Town and belongs to the region Stellenbosch. This area counts as one of South Africa's best wine regions according to many experts; no other region's yard produces as many premium wines as they do here. This is not surprising, as Stellenbosch and therefore vineyards such as Simonsig benefit from the ideal location. Soils are full of minerals and supply the vines with precious nutrients due to sufficient rainfall, whilst the breeze from the Atlantic makes for the required cooling.
Simonsig Wine Relies on its Winemakers
A true Simonsig wine only becomes possible with the expertise of the winemakers. This is why the yard attaches great importance to highly trained winemakers and wine growers, who accompany the cultivation and maturing process of the wine with much love and knowledge.
Biodiversity & Wine Initiative at Simonsig
In order to ensure a sustainable handling with nature, Simonsig is part of the Biodiversity & Wine Initiative. The winery grows a range of different grape varieties to have a great spectrum of plants in the region and to use the natural resources optimally. This is another example of the winemakers' expertise, who succeed in combining the different grape varieties every year - and this of a constant high quality. Additionally, Simonsig is active in preservation of native plants such as the Fynbos.
