Damascene Chenin Blanc (2022) – Damascene’s Chenin Blanc highlights the cooler side of Stellenbosch, where old vines and restrained winemaking keep the variety focused and expressive. The 2022 vintage shows citrus peel, pear, and subtle stone fruit, layered with bright acidity and a lightly textured palate. Clean, dry, and quietly complex, this is a Chenin that leans into precision rather than weight, reflecting Damascene’s site-driven approach and South Africa’s growing reputation for elegant whites.
