Stellenbosch Chenin Blanc from South Africa's Coastal Region.

Maree Family Wines operates in Stellenbosch, the heart of South Africa's Coastal Region, where maritime influence and granite-rich soils shape distinctive white wines. The winery's flagship Old Man Sam Chenin Blanc demonstrates the region's signature expression of this versatile variety—a wine that has drawn attention from Falstaff, Wine Advocate, and Wine Spectator. Chenin Blanc thrives in Stellenbosch's cool pockets, developing the mineral precision and textural complexity that define serious South African whites. The wine's prestige rating of 87.9 reflects its standing among critics evaluating contemporary Cape production. Maree Family Wines sits within a region celebrated for its ability to balance ripeness with acidity, producing wines of structure and aging potential.
