- Since their first vintage and 2008, Craig and Carla Hawkins have built Testalonga into a winery producing perhaps the most exciting and non-conventional wine coming out of South Africa. The wines they've produced out of the Swartland region have such character and complexity, that they've helped to transform the image of South African wine. This is a gorgeous skin contact Chenin Blanc, made with grapes from a small vineyard that was abandoned in 2014 and is being passionately revived by Testalonga. Floral and herb aromas with spice cupboard and citrus give way to a palate full of fruit and salty minerality with a bright, fresh acidity. Gorgeous, complex and unique South African Chenin from this amazing producer!
