Forager White is a South African white wine from African Pride Wines, crafted from a blend of Chenin Blanc and Grenache Blanc grapes. Sourced from special vineyard parcels in Paarl, Wellington, and other regions of the Western Cape, it’s produced using mostly free-run juice with a touch of oak influence to add texture. The wine is dry, medium-to-full bodied, and showcases both varietal fruit and regional character.
