Broadbent 'The Curator' Reserve Chenin Blanc

The Curator was born in 2011 from a simple challenge: find a natural wine that dramatically overdelivers on quality for the price. That search led the fine folks at Broadbent Selections to Swartland, South Africa’s oldest and most historic wine region.. Known for dry-farmed old bush vines and a warm Mediterranean climate, many of these vineyards were planted generations ago, with some vines over 100 years old. Their naturally low yields produce intensely concentrated, expressive fruit — the kind rarely seen at this price point.

The Broadbent 'The Curator' Reserve Chenin Blanc is coming from old vine Chenin that Broadbent themselves found too compelling to go into their Curator blend, so they took that fruit and bottled it as a Reserve. Fresh, balanced, and textured with an appealing waxiness that Chenin Blanc from South Africa can exhibit. Fruits of pineapple and green apple show with florals of honeysuckle and wildflower, along with honeycomb and lime zest in a wine that offers great quality to price ratio for enjoyers of South African Chenin Blancs.
