Illimis (latin for clarity) Wines Winemaker Lucinda Heyns is all about the ‘terroir’ and believes wine should reflect their origin.
Situated in the cool climate region of Elgin, the grapes for her Chenin Blanc are subjected to a long, slow ripening period that contributes to the racy acidity and concentration of flavours in this wine.
Delicate floral and citrus aromas fill the glass followed by pear and white peach on the palate. Lovely lingering concentration to finish.

When you’re dealing with top quality wine, nearly all producers are either certified organic or are at least working with organic principles.The large majority will not use any pesticides or herbicides in the vineyards, or chemicals in the winery other than minimal quantities of sulphur dioxide. The truth is, most would rather spend their valuable time focussing on the contents of the bottle than on additional paperwork required for certification.
Well over 50% of all the wine in the shop is organic, but only those producers who have received official certification have the Organic Wine logo on their label.
