Episode Five: Chenin Blanc

It's #DrinkChenin Day! We're marking the occasion by looking at South Africa's most-planted grape variety, which has long roots in the country, dating back to 1655. With 17,103 hectares planted, South Africa is home to more Chenin Blanc vines than the rest of the world combined, and it has increasingly become recognized as country's flagbearer variety.
