Le Chant is sited on what was formerly four separate properties in Stellenbosch’s Polkadraai Hills. The terroir is characterised by gently rolling hills of varying elevations between 220m and 280m above sea level. The slopes face predominantly south and southwest, which exposes them to the cooling sea breezes of False Bay, and when conditions are right, Table Bay. The relatively flat surrounds and low-growing vegetation means the vineyards are bathed in sunlight from sunrise to sunset, but receive more direct afternoon sunlight.
This is a wine partnership forged by proprietors from two proud wine producing nations. French flair and South African determination have long been intertwined in the fabric of the Cape and Le Chant embodies this enduring wine relationship, marrying Old World heritage with the contemporary New World. On the label is the Striding Rooster that has for many decades been the personification of French flair. It is when the Rooster is bursting in song (Le Chant), that it reveals its exuding confidence, pride, and determination to the world.

Tasting note:
“This wine features a full, rich palate characterized by layered aromas of stone fruit, orange blossom, and a subtle hint of white apple. It maintains a harmonious interplay of oak, acidity, and fresh minerality on the mid-palate. Harvested in February before the heavy rains, this wine exudes richness and elegance in style” – Winemaker
