The Benguela Cove Chardonnay presents itself with a complex and incredibly generous structure, underpinned by a clearly defined acidity. The core of this delicious Chardonnay unfolds aromas of fragrant citrus blossoms, subtle grapefruit, white peaches and ginger as well as fine oak wood notes and spices. On the creamy palate, delicious citrus nuances are complemented by pebbly minerality. A first-class "Cool Climate" wine, which will continue to develop wonderfully with time.

Treatment in the cellar

This wine was made from two different Chardonnay clones that fermented and matured separately for 10 months (50% new wood). 30% was fermented with local yeast cultures to transfer the aroma and mouthfeel to the wine. The juice had extensive contact with the yeast for 150 days and was stirred regularly to bring more structure to the wine. The secondary malolactic fermentation was stopped. The wine was only very finely dosed wooded in order to transfer the typical buttery and hazelnut flavour and soft smoothness into the wine.
