We have so much Chenin in our hose right now, it’s great. This beauty is a sample from Good Pair Days (thank you!). This Jemma 2017 Chenin Blanc is made by Painted Wolf in Paarl, South Africa. Painted Wolf was set up by winemaker Jeremy and his wife Emma in 2007 as a small-scale experiment…
I love Chenin Blanc and I have Perth’s Swan Valley to thank for that. This one here is not from the Swan Valley, or even from Australia. It’s in fact from Stellenbosch in South Africa however it’s actually made by Aussie winemaker! Introducing Old Mates 2019 Chenin Blanc which Good Pair Days imports and has kindly sent…

Pinotage is South Africa’s signature grape variety. It’s a red grape and it’s a cross between the grapes Pinot…
