Taking a fresh look at an old favourite, Kleine Zalze produces avant-garde Chenin Blancs from ancient stock – and, reports Emile Joubert, has made a name for itself as the go-to label for a cultivar with a long history and a bright future.

Kleine Zalze Wine Estate’s Project Z challenged the winemaking team to find the ultimate expression from a vineyard. The goal? To source grapes from interesting and unique sites and make singular wines that push the boundaries of creativity and innovation. To give you an idea of just how inventive this winemaking experiment is, some of the Project Z wines are matured in terracotta vessels.
