Ernie Els Big Easy Chenin Blanc wine is a libation that hails from South Africa. This wine boasts a vibrant and youthful character with a subtle oak influence. Bursting with flavors of white peaches, guava and ripe pineapple, it excites the palate with its refreshing acidity and signature mineral finish. It's an elegantly balanced tipple, ideal for sipping on a warm summer afternoon or paired with zesty salads or shellfish dishes. This Chenin Blanc truly embodies its moniker 'Big Easy' – an enticing, easy-going wine with a depth that's best savoured, not rushed.

Tasting Notes

Hints of citrus peel and notes of preserved lemon and lime are rounded out with riper guava, quince and white florals. While super fresh, there is a hint of crushed almond to add weight with gentle acidity that follows to a medium-long finish.

About the Winery
