Description
In a nutshell:
Discover the citrus zest and subtle oak of a delightful Banghoek Chardonnay, offering exceptional quality at an appealing price point.
The lowdown:
There's juicy peaches, ripe lemons and a nutty richness upfront and the kind of fruitiness that good Chardonnay reliably delivers. It's from a single vineyard in South Africa and they've let it ferment naturally with some time in oak barrels. That's where the toasty, buttery richness comes in. You get all your classic citrus and stone fruit, crème fraiche, and a bit of nutty oak spice. It's got a lovely line of freshness too, so it doesn't feel heavy. For the quality, you'd pay way more for something like this from Burgundy.
The Producer:
Wildeberg Wines, nestled in South Africa's Franschhoek valley, thrive under the watchful eye of winemaker JD Rossouw. Here they craft their wines from both local vineyards and those further afield. As part of South Africa's Integrated Production of Wine (IPW) system, their practices are environmentally friendly, and their participation in the Cape's Old Vine Project highlights their commitment to preserving vines over 35 years old. JD also experiments with lesser-known varieties and cutting-edge techniques, showcased under their SKU (Strange Companjie Unlimited) label. They're good for a fresh and innovative take on things.
When to drink:
This approachable Chardonnay loves creamy sauces and simple fish dishes - think baked fish with a touch of lemon.
Suitable for Vegans
