Holden Manz Wild Fermented Chenin Blanc is a refreshing, citrusy South African white wine. It displays a medium body and zingy acidity.

Holden Manz Wine Estate, known as Franschhoek’s hidden gem, is located in the southernmost corner of the stunningly beautiful Franschhoek Valley.

The Anglo-German Holden-Manz family own this 22 hectare Estate, which they purchased in 2010.

75kW of solar panels provide electricity and a 40,000 litre roof water collection system supplements the underground water supply. For this reason, the winery’s motto is “Tread Lightly”.

Holden Manz Chenin Blanc utilises grapes from 35 year old bush vines. Winemakers pick the berries in the cool of the early morning then chill them to 5ºC before whole bunch crushing.

Clarified juice is wild fermented, 80% in stainless steel tanks and 20% in French oak barrels (50:50 first and second fill). The wine is constantly stirred on the fine lees for 6 months before bottling.

Enjoy Holden Manz Wild Fermented Chenin Blanc with lightly spiced calamari salad, herb crusted goats cheese with fresh baguette or roasted baby kingklip.
