Overview

The 2024 Dicey Bannockburn Chenin Blanc is a Central Otago white wine from the rocky, dry and windblown landscape of Bannockburn. Dicey’s wines are shaped by family vineyards, hand-harvested fruit and the extremes of place: hot summer days, cold nights, unforgiving soils and the annual rhythm of the season.

Vintage & Winemaking

Dicey works from three family vineyards in Bannockburn: Swansong, Black Rabbit and Inlet. The fruit is hand-harvested, with each vineyard contributing its own expression of the region’s rugged soils and climate. This 2024 Chenin Blanc is made in an off-dry style, balancing ripe orchard fruit, fine lees complexity and a bright acid line.

Critic Scores & Reviews

94 points - Cameron Douglas MS | Tasted: September 2025
Described as an exciting Chenin Blanc with plush, ripe and vibrant flavours of green and yellow apples, both baked and fresh, with stony mineral quality, fine lees complexity, immaculate acidity and a silky mouthfeel.

Tasting Notes

Ripe green and yellow apple characters sit alongside baked apple, stony mineral notes and fine lees texture. The palate is off-dry, plush and vibrant, with a silky mouthfeel, concentrated core fruit and a bright, balancing acid line.

Food Pairing

Pair with white fish, roast chicken, fresh seafood, pork belly, soft cheeses, apple-based salads, or lightly spiced Asian dishes.

Cellaring Potential

Best drinking from 2025 through 2032+.
