Babylonstoren Candide 2024

Babylonstoren Candide is a lively, elegant white blend that delights with aromas of tropical fruit salad, fresh lemon and lime zest, and a delicate hint of honeysuckle. On the palate, vibrant citrus and ripe fruit meet a soft beeswax silkiness, finishing dry, fresh, and beautifully refined.

Each component is treated with care to highlight its character: Chardonnay is fermented in French oak barrels for depth and structure, Chenin Blanc and Sémillon are gently pressed and cold-fermented in stainless steel to preserve freshness, while Viognier is aged in Nomblot cement eggs and terracotta amphorae, adding texture and subtle complexity.

The result is a seamless blend of Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Sémillon, and Viognier—a wine that celebrates the diversity of Babylonstoren’s vineyards and brings a joyful tribute to nature, seasonality, and the art of the garden.

Bright, textured, and full of life—Candide is pure bottled optimism.
