The Winery Holden Manz in the picturesque wine region Franschhoek is known for its outstanding red wine cuvées and elegant single-varietal wines. Nestled in the breathtaking landscapes of South Africa, it benefits from a unique terroir shaped by its altitude and soil conditions.
On estate-owned vineyards, classic grape varieties such as Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah are grown first and foremost. But wines made from Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc are also known for their quality.
The winery focuses on sustainable farming and gentle handling of the grapes. The wines, including specialties like the Holden Manz Visionaire, are often praised for their structure, complexity, and aging potential.
Translation missing: en.Tasting notes
The Avant Garde Chardonnay from Winery Holden Manz is a white wine fermented and aged in a barrique barrel with aromas of citrus fruits, white flora, cantaloupe, and passion fruit.
With a hint of well-integrated, French oak, this Chardonnay Avant Garde from the Holden Manz winery presents itself as a classic-elegant, full-bodied wine. Additionally, this Chardonnay was fermented with native yeast.

Grape Variety
Chenin Blanc is a widely cultivated, old white wine grape variety that has been grown in France (in Anjou – Touraine) since the 9th century. Compared to other white wine grape varieties, this variety is very productive. This leads to a very high quality of the white wine when reduced on the vine.
In South Africa, Chenin Blanc is the most widely grown white wine grape variety. The reason for this is primarily the very high diversity. For example, there are "wild-growing" vines (so-called Bush Vines) that are usually not irrigated. For this reason, the vines penetrate very deep into the ground with their roots to reach water. These Chenin Blancs therefore have a stronger depth and complexity.
The grape variety can also be aged very fresh and fruity in stainless steel tanks, developing into a very nice summer wine. Through the Aged in oak barrels, one obtains very complex and full-bodied white wines. The aromas of Chenin Blanc wines range from peach, apricot, and tropical fruits to honey and melon.
