A zero-zero Chenin Blanc from Johan “Stompie” Meyer, part of the cult-favorite Brutal! series — where nothing is added, and nothing is taken away. This 2022 release comes from 35-year-old, dry-farmed bush vines in the western Swartland. It sees 7 days of skin contact, spontaneous fermentation, and 14 months aging on gross lees in concrete. No filtering, no fining, and absolutely no sulfur. Raw, expressive, and wild — just as intended.

Smoky and nutty with a peppercorn spice and a cider-like tang that brings a savory, rustic feel.
