The grapes of the Holden Manz Chenin Blanc come from vines that are over 40 years old and deliver a multi-layered white wine that shines in a bright lemon yellow in the glass. The wine's elegance is already evident in the bouquet with a beautiful symphony of tropical notes, citrus fruits and gooseberries, underpinned by jasmine, orange peel and nuances of white flowers. A hint of white peach and fresh brioche provide the final touch. On the palate, the white wine, which was partly matured in French oak, also shows its fruity side and scores with aromas of pears, quinces and lemons, which are surrounded by melon and linger for a long time. The fine acidity makes the taste experience perfect. Thanks to its fruity character, the Holden Manz Chenin Blanc is a real treat on its own, but it is also an excellent accompaniment to dishes with fish and vegetables, seafood or goat cheese.

From there, you can overlook the idyllic valley and the beautiful mountain range, and only 60 kilometers away from Cape Town. The name of the estate is a combination of the last names of the owners; the Brit Gerard Holden and the German Migo Manz. Both purchased the estate in August 2010 with the former name ‘Klein Genoot’ and subsequently renamed it. From then on with the primary target to produce unique wine creations, paired with luxurious exclusivity.
