The distinct ravine in the Stellenbosch Kloof ward allows the opportunity to harness the cooling influences from the False Bay on the south and east-facing slopes. This captures the intense flavour compounds found in the grape skins.
Tasting Note
A variety of chardonnay clones were planted on different slopes, harvested at different ripening levels and all of it fermented and matured in French oak barrels. These practices help to achieve natural balance and allow for different textural components which are then blended to achieve finesse and complexity. Bold and graceful with fragrances of lemon biscuit and overripe oranges.

Excellent example of a gently wooded Chardonnay, buttery mouthfeel but with a lovely clean citrus finish.
Smells of lemon and crisp apples on the nose, oaky notes, some hints of butter. Pairs well with our quail and langoustine bisque.
Lighter than would be expected, the vanilla and oak is contrasted well with good citrus.
The name gives it away: oak, creamy vanilla, mineral, fruity, exotic. For its price there is quire a lot of depth in this wine
Classic chardonnay on the nose and palate but missing a bit of smoothness on the finish. Would need a bit more of aging.
"So great to be able to receive a regular delivery of good wine rather than the usual 12 bottle case sold by most 'wine clubs' "

Great wine at a great time, everytime
