“Maybe it’s got something to do with her German nationality, but Jessica Saurwein has a very sure touch with Riesling. Chi comes from two sources in Elgin – Casey’s Ridge and Paul Cluver – and is wonderfully pure, pithy and transparent. Just off dry, with 11.5 grams of residual sugar, it has lemon and lime intensity and some sweetness to round out the acidity.”

Product Description
Since Jessica produced her first wine at Stellenbosch University, she has been trying to redeem her family’s reputation in wine. Steeped in the history of 17th century winemaking, her forefathers made “sour” wine for the Duke of Austria! Luckily, now Jessica makes Pinot Noir and some rather fine Riesling rather than sour wine.
Chi means “life force” and Chi stands for CHIUTA (an African rain god). Situated in the fertile Elgin valley, the picturesque vineyard site inspired the creation of this crisp, handcrafted Riesling. This wine evokes fragrances of citrus blossom, yellow flowers and citrus, white pear, ginger and flint.
