Chenin Blanc is Coriole’s principal white variety and was first planted in 1977.

Chenin Blanc is an aromatic wine that has great fruit concentration and yet shows an outstanding ability to age. It has proven to be well suited to the moderately warm climate of McLaren Vale.

The painting featured on the label is by Mary Kathleen "Molly" Lloyd, co-founder of Coriole, who was inspired to capture Coriole's beautiful spring landscape from a neighbouring hillside.

"This came from five picks off several sites in the Vale, with an average vine age of 40 years; 10% saw seasoned oak. This is deliciously brisk and vivid, drawing through green and golden apples, lemon pith, sappy florals and a faint brush of soft herbs. The balance is keen, with flavour ripeness, just enough texture and thrilling drive. It’s quite the bargain. 91 points"
