The winners of the 2022 Standard Bank Chenin Blanc Top 10 Challenge were announced at an awards ceremony at Cavalli Estate on Friday 24 August. The announcement of the top 10 list was followed by a five-course lunch by Cavalli's Chef Lucas Carsten, paired with the award-winning Chenin Blanc wines. Ken Forrester, co-founder and chair of the Chenin Blanc Association said: “What is not surprising is that standards continue to rise. As a group, local winemakers are continually upping their game. Their Chenin fervour galvanises them to keep on striving harder. What is surprising, however, is that so many entrants were able to rise above the harrowing pressures and constraints of the pandemic and give of their best to Chenin. That tells you something about their prowess and bravery.”
