Where to taste Chenin Blanc in Franschhoek
17 estates in Franschhoek make a Chenin Blanc that Vivino drinkers have rated. Almost a fifth of the Cape's vineyards grow Chenin, made in every style from crisp and unwooded to rich and old-vine. They're listed by the rating of the wine shown: a wine rated by thousands counts for more than one rated by a few dozen. Tasting rooms don't always pour the whole range, so ask ahead for a wine you'd like to try.
Ratings from Vivino, September 2026.
