2022 Elodie Chenin Blanc, Gabrielskloof, Swartland
From four different farms in the Swartland, including Adi Badenhorst's Jakkalsfontein, Chris Alheit's Nuwedam, and the Langkloof farm that's source of some brilliant old vine Chenin, this is focussed and fine, with lots of hay, jasmin notes, and some aniseed. Not from Bot River, but a brilliant wine nonetheless: we can see why Peter-Allan gets so excited about this.
