The proud rooster which is the symbol of Le Chant Wines in Polkadraai, Stellenbosch began crowing earlier than usual this year as grape harvesting for the 2024 vintage kicked-off ten days earlier than the average. Grapes for Le Chant Blanc, made from Chenin Blanc, were already hitting the harvest bins at the end of January, while the picking of the melange of red varieties for Le Chant Rouge will also begin earlier than per normal.
Stepping out with wine just became a whole lot easier thanks to Polka, the snappy new cousin of the easy-drinking, fun-loving Polkadraai range by Stellenbosch Hills. Polka is itself a range of quality wines but packaged in convenient 250ml cans.
