Two 300-litre barrels were made, apparently. Slightly reductive nose. Distinctly vegy aroma. Not the most charming of these David & Nadia Chenins. It seems less concentrated than subsequent vintages. (JR)

100% Chenin Blanc, old bushvines. The first vintage of this wine. Closed and smoky and tightly stiffly woven – like the finest of starched linen. Racy and elegant, high-wired with razor-sharp citrus, but all the fruit and flesh very much waiting in the wings. Very Loire-like. (TC)

The 2014 Hoë-Steen Chenin Blanc had a very reduced nose when I tasted it from bottle. The palate appeared to have plenty of freshness and good acidity, although the fruit appeared very subdued on the finish.
