In South Africa, the traditional term for Chenin Blanc is "Steen", but this is changing on labels to the more internationally familiar "Chenin Blanc". It can run from insipid to very good (Kanu is a nice, inexpensive and widely available example), but it is losing some ground to the better known international varieties that IK mentioned.

Cheers,
