Tasting Notes

Wine Profile:
Crafted from premium vineyards in Stellenbosch, Vergelegen’s Reserve Chardonnay is a benchmark example of South African Chardonnay. Barrel-fermented and expertly aged, it strikes a perfect balance between richness, freshness, and complexity, showcasing both the elegance of the varietal and the estate’s meticulous winemaking.

Appearance:
Brilliant pale gold with a subtle green hue, reflecting its freshness and aging potential.

Nose:
A beautifully layered bouquet of ripe citrus, white peach, and nectarine, intertwined with delicate floral notes. Subtle oak aging introduces nuances of toasted brioche, almond, and a hint of butterscotch, complemented by a flinty minerality.

Palate:
Luxuriously textured yet vibrant, the palate unfolds with flavors of lemon curd, baked apple, and pear, supported by a creamy mouthfeel from well-integrated oak. A bright acidity adds finesse, while underlying notes of hazelnut and spice lead to a long, elegant finish.

Food Pairing:
A superb match for seafood dishes such as grilled lobster, seared scallops, or creamy prawn risotto. It also pairs beautifully with roast chicken, truffle-infused pasta, and soft-ripened cheeses like Brie or Camembert.

Cellaring Potential:
Delicious now for its fresh fruit and creamy elegance, but will develop further complexity over 5–8 years.
