Swartland Winery Founders Chenin Blanc 2024

Ravi Krishnan — Really nice for the price

7/10

Picked this up from the shop on a whim because I wanted something different from my usual Sauvignon Blanc. Really glad I did — it's got this lovely fresh acidity that keeps you coming back for more. At £11 it's a solid buy, especially for a midweek treat.

Dmitri Volkov — Lovely with chicken

7/10

Got this as part of a mixed case and it ended up being one of my favourites. Had it with a roast chicken on Sunday and it was spot on — the acidity cuts through the richness perfectly. Chenin Blanc doesn't get enough love in my opinion and this is a good example of why it should.

Mia Sundberg — Fine but nothing special

5/10

Had this at a friend's house and it was perfectly drinkable but I wasn't blown away. It's light and easy enough but for over eleven quid I'd probably reach for something else. Not bad, just not memorable for me.
