“With quality remarkably high and consistent, I was particularly struck by Journey’s End…Winemaker Leon Esterhuizen clearly does a fine job.”
– Jancis Robinson, Master of Wine
The Gabb family’s estate, Journey’s End, is a small, quality-driven operation that’s putting South Africa on the fine wine map—with acclaim from top shows like the International Wine Challenge and the Decanter World Wine Awards plus the plaudits from critics (like Jancis) to prove it. They were even named Ethical Company of the Year by The Drinks Business.
With its whimsical label, intense aromatics and super-ripe fruit character, their Chenin Blanc-Viognier truly is “the bee’s knees.” You’ll taste why it’s a regular customer favorite—look forward to ripe tangerine, apricot, pear and orange blossom aromas with bright orchard fruit and zingy citrus flavors, lifted by notes of fresh-cut grass and subtle spice.
Easy to enjoy on its own, this is also tasty with equally aromatic foods (think Thai or Indian), savory white meats or strong-flavored cheeses. Secure your share today.
