Drink now or cellar for up to 6 years. Serve chilled.

One of the most exciting Chenin Blancs currently being produced in South Africa, the Beaumont Hope Marguerite has won praise from top international wine critics like Tim Atkin and Jancis Robinson. The fruit used in this wine is carefully selected from the estate’s oldest Chenin plantings which date back to the 1970s. The wine is fermented in large French oak barrels and aged on the lees to add additional character and complexity.

The result is a powerful, full-bodied white wine which is reminiscent of fine white Burgundy. On the nose there are intense notes of white peaches, vanilla, and mango, while the first sip reveals a firm structure and bright tropical fruit flavours. This is a wine which will respond well to ageing and can be kept in the cellar for at least 5-7 years.

The Beaumont family founded their winery in 1994 after withdrawing from the local co-operative to try their hand at making their own wines from start to finish. As well as working hard on the vineyards, Raoul and Jayne Beaumont renovated the charming 18th centrury building at the heart of the estate which once served as an outpost for the Dutch East India Company. Today the estate is run by Sebastian who is committed to producing exceptional Chenin Blanc wines from the Bot River’s outstanding cool climate conditions.
