Noble Hill is a family-operated winery located on the slopes of the Simonsberg mountains between Stellenbosch and Paarl. Committed to terroir-driven styles, they grow all their grapes on the estate and follow organic, minimal-intervention practices. The winery produces small volumes of classically styled wines that are fruitful, elegant, and drinkable, with a focus on quality throughout the process. Their wines aim to reflect the unique granite character of the Simonsberg soils, an area renowned for producing South Africa's finest wines for over three centuries.
Noble Hill's Chenin Blanc is a unique expression of terroir, crafted from both old and new vineyards on the Simonsberg slopes. The wine is fermented with wild yeasts in concrete vessels and clay amphorae, then aged on the lees for 9 months, resulting in a complex and nuanced profile. It offers aromas of lime blossom, honeydew melon, and green apple, complemented by delicate mineral flavors that reflect its rocky mountain origins. This Chenin Blanc showcases depth, complexity, and a distinctive granite minerality, embodying Noble Hill's minimal-intervention winemaking philosophy.
