Dornier Cocoa Hill Chenin Blanc 2025
Chenin Blanc
Description
Dornier Wines is a family-owned estate grounded in the rich terroir of Stellenbosch’s Blaauwklippen region, where granite-influenced soils and Atlantic-coastal breezes give Cabernet and Chenin Blanc grapes focused fruit and vibrant acidity. Since its establishment in the early 1990s, Dornier has embraced a balanced New World approach that favours expressive fruit driven by site rather than heavy oak or over-processing. The “Cocoa Hill” range reflects this ethos - approachable, fruit-forward wines that still speak of place and vintage conditions. This Chenin Blanc is selected to show the variety’s energetic acidity and tropical charm without unnecessary complexity, a style that has become a hallmark of Dornier’s everyday whites.
Colour: Pale straw with green highlights that signal youthful freshness.
Nose: Delicate aromas of stone fruit and citrus - think white peach, lemon rind, and a touch of tropical passion fruit and litchi - all lifted by crisp, floral notes.
Palate: The palate is lively and vibrant, with a clean, dry core underscored by zesty acidity. Flavours lean toward juicy pear and ripe peach, with citrus zest adding focus and a touch of tropical character.
Finish: The finish is crisp and refreshing, carrying citrus-tinged fruit through a zesty, lingering close.

Dornier Cocoa Hill Chenin Blanc 2025
- Food Pairing : The clean acidity and bright fruit profile of Dornier Cocoa Hill Chenin Blanc 2025 make it a naturally versatile food partner. It pairs beautifully with citrus-grilled calamari or line-fish (e.g. snoek with lemon and herbs), where the wine’s freshness complements saline and charred flavours. It also matches well with creamy chicken pie or butter chicken — the lively acidity cuts through richness without overpowering the subtle spices. For a lighter option, enjoy it with a crisp green salad topped with grilled halloumi, where the citrus and stone-fruit notes enhance the overall brightness of the dish.
