Named after Rachelsfontein, a perennial spring on Boschendal, this fresh, fruity Chenin Blanc is the perfect partner for fine food and friends.

Single vineyard wine.

From a certified heritage vineyard planted in 1974, this old vine Chenin Blanc was hand harvestd.  The wine fermented and was matured for 12 months in handmade clay amphorae and old oak barrels.

The name Lycaon comes from the scientific name for the African wild dog, Lycaon Pictus, and is derived from the Greek word Lycos, meaning wolf.  The label illustration is from an 18th century book on adverturing and hunting in Southern Africa.
