Chenel is a white South African wine grape variety that was produced by a crossing of Chenin blanc and Trebbiano. The variety was produced in 1973 by Christiaan Johannes Orffer (1926–2008) at the Elsenburg Agricultural Training Institute.1
It was the first domestic South African grape varietal to be introduced after Pinotage.
