Lievlander Chenin Blanc

Lievland is one of Stellenbosch’s most historically important farms, and the property in its current form dates back to 1934, when it was purchased by Baron and Baroness Von Stiernhjelm from Latvia. In late 2017, José Conde and Tyrrel Myburgh, two of the South African wine industry’s leading lights, purchased the estate and they have since set about an extensive re-planting program and re-constructing the cellars. 

The farm is located in a favourable position on the north-western slope of the Simonsberg Mountain; and its sheltered position, with cooler than-average conditions for Stellenbosch is ideal for high-quality wine production.

The nose gives a mix of ripe pineapples, citrus and stone fruits. These flavours continue on the palate, where they are complemented by a savoury, mineral streak. Full-bodied and with a rich, mouth-filling texture lifted by a refreshing acidity on the long, harmonious finish.
