TASTING NOTE

A true expression of terroir, this Chardonnay showcases a vibrant intensity, revealing an aromatic bouquet of spring blossoms, pineapple and stone fruit with hints of ripe grapefruit. Subtle undertones of almond skin and chamomile lend a sophisticated, savoury depth. On the palate, a sherbet-like vibrancy drives the fruit, leading to a mouthwatering minerality. Citrus fruit dominates the palate, with notes of toasted almonds, balanced by a creamy yet energetic structure, culminating in a refined, flinty finish.

WINEMAKING

The grapes were harvested by hand at 23.6° Balling in the early morning to ensure the grapes arrived cool at the cellar and whole bunch pressed immediately. A long gentle “Champagne” press program was selected where all the juice was pumped into one tank and settled overnight. 1/3 was fermented in Stainless Steel, 1/3 in new untoasted 300-liter French oak and 1/3 in 3rd fill 400-liter French oak barrels. The wine was matured for 9 months before being blended and bottled.

VINEYARDS

Tradouw is in the heart of the Little Karoo and is known for its continental climate with cold nights and warm days. These conditions are required for colour and fruit development. The 23-year-old block of Chardonnay is grown on decomposed Bokkeveld Shale soil. These soils produce wines with a certain amount of purity, elegance, flintiness and freshness. The wines are also recognised to have lower pH’s which prolongs the longevity.
