| has gloss | eng: Chenin blanc (also Pineau de la Loire and Gout fort), is a white wine grape variety from the Loire valley of France. Its high acidity means it can be used to make everything from sparkling wines to well-balanced dessert wines, although it can produce very bland, neutral wines if the vines natural vigor is not controlled. Outside the Loire it is found in most of the New World wine regions; it is the most widely planted variety in South Africa, where it is also known as Steen. The grape may have been one of the first to be grown in South Africa by Jan van Riebeeck in 1655, or it may have come to that country with Huguenots fleeing France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. Chenin Blanc was often misidentified in Australia as well, so tracing its early history in the country is not easy. |

| has gloss | fin: Chenin Blanc on viinirypälelajike, josta valmistetaan voimakkaita, mausteisia ja aavistuksen makeita valkoviinejä. Lajiketta kasvatetaan pääasiassa Kaliforniassa ja Ranskassa Loiren laaksossa. Chenin Blancin voimakas hapokkuus tasapainottaa rypäleen makeutta ja saa sen vanhenemaan hyvin. Rypäleestä valmistetaan muun muassa kuuluisa ranskalainen Vouvray-samppanja. |
