Ken Forrester Wines

Stellenbosch

Ken Forrester represents the true pioneering spirit of the post-apartheid South African wine industry. Drawing on the examples of top Loire whites, he has used his uniquely placed Chenin vines to maximum effect and has single-handedly led a Chenin Blanc quality revolution. As a result these wines have achieved iconic status worldwide.

The beautifully balanced barrel fermented Chenin, FMC, which simply stands for Forrester Meinert (Martin Meinert, who makes the wine) Chenin, and the luscious late-picked Chenin Blanc T named after his wife Theresa, are both made from fruit grown at Ken's Stellenbosch vineyard. The silky fine Gypsy red is made from low-yielding vines.

We are also introducing this year the vibrant, fruity and great value Petit Chenin, Petit Pinotage and Petit Cabernet Merlot, alongside Ken's Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz Grenache. An exciting range of wines from a great winemaker.
