Description
Nederberg Winemasters Chardonnay is a wine made from Chardonnay grapes sourced from top-performing vineyards in Darling and Stellenbosch. These vineyards are known for their cool climate winegrowing areas, which allows for slower ripening of the grapes to achieve greater flavor intensity. The grapes are grown in granite and sandstone soils, resulting in grapes with higher natural acidity. The vines, ranging in age from 12 to 17 years, are situated on mostly south to south-westerly facing slopes, and are supplemented with drip irrigation. The Albari*o grapes came from Stellenbosch, the Chenin blanc from Swartland, and the Gewurztraminer from Paarl. The wine was bottled at 750ml.
Understated typical citrus aromas vie with stone fruit such as nectarine and white peach which are all present on the palate too. Theres a riper, subtle element of pear and quince which comes through, again with a gentle creamy vanilla oak nuance from clever use of both new and older oak barrels.
Bottle Size: 750ml
