Product Notes

Darling Cellars Arum Fields Chenin Blanc Reserve wine is an exquisitely crafted white wine from the Western Cape region of South Africa. With a delicate pale straw color, this elegant wine exudes aromas of ripe tropical fruits, including guava and pineapple, intertwined with hints of fresh lemon zest. The palate offers a luscious combination of rich flavors, including succulent peaches and apricots, balanced by a vibrant acidity. The oak aging process provides a subtle creaminess to the texture, enhancing the wine's complexity. This Chenin Blanc Reserve is perfect for those seeking a refreshing and fruit-forward wine to enjoy on its own or paired with seafood dishes.

Tasting Notes

Subtle tropical fruit dominated by ripe yellow peaches, quince, guava and white pear on the nose. Elegant and well-balanced structure with loads of tropical fruit on the pallet and a fresh and crisp acidity followed by a lingering aftertaste.

About the Winery

Darling Cellars

Darling Cellars Winery, South Africa, which is found within its Western Cape province, can claim a historical past. Sir Charles Darling set it up back in 1899, and soon it became famous as one of those wineries that were producing some of the best wines in the whole region. He called it after himself, Sir Charles Darling, and any true wine lover would attest that every bottle bore his heart.

However, during these transitions, there has been a consistency in determination to make wines that match international standards.

The Cloete family bought the winery in 2003. It has since maintained its history and age-old values. Darling Cellars winery, under their leadership, has constantly been making impressive wines that are celebrated not only in South Africa but beyond its borders as well.

This revered institution is now known as much for its dedication to sustainability as it is for wine. Darling Cellars Winery makes mouth-watering varietals highlighting the distinctive terroir of this area in the Western Cape of South Africa. Truly, it is an excellent gem in the country's wine industry.

The management of Darling Cellars Winery considers environmental protection a priority. Its goal is not to leave any pollution footprints in nature. Using a mixture of modern technology supported by old-fashioned agriculture, they grow their grapes in an environmentally friendly way for superior wines.

The winery is located in the Darling area with 350 hectares of microclimate and terroir specifications. As for their grape varietals, they include sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, shiraz, and pinotage. They use organic pest control methods that include owl boxes, thus avoiding using chemicals to keep off the pests in their vineyards.

To sum up, Darling has a history dating back to 1899 of producing award-winning wines. However, their commitment to practices and green techniques not only promotes the protection of the environment but also enables them to produce high-quality wines all through.
