2024 Sadie Family Stellenbosch Mev. Kirsten

97 POINTS

Monica Larner - Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The Sadie Family 2024 Stellenbosch Die Distriksreeks Mev. Kirsten is deeply textured and honeyed, with remarkable intensity layered over a silky, smooth palate. Despite its richness and viscosity, the wine retains precision and poise, reflecting one of South Africa’s oldest Chenin Blanc vineyards, planted in 1905 and painstakingly restored. Rooted in clay-rich subsoils, this historic site consistently produces the most powerful and structured Chenin Blanc in The Sadie Family portfolio.

Lots of spiced pear, mango stone, honey, papaya and honeysuckle on the nose of this full-bodied white. It’s creamy, rich and delicious, with incredible generosity and volume but reined in by fresh acidity. Great balance. Hard not to drink. Chenin blanc from a vineyard planted in 1905.
