The Decanter Awards 2022 named Ken Forrester's Old Vine Reserve Chenin Blanc 2021 Best in Show, rating it 97 points, which, if you know the international wine scene, was one of those seismic events that sent ripples throughout the world. Proclaiming: "They've arrived."
‘Mr Chenin’ is a flagbearer for a grape once seen as a mere workhorse in the Cape. He talks about old vines, pét-nat and focusing on the sprinkles.
