🍋 Capensis – Fijnbosch Chardonnay: Stellenbosch’s Summit of Purity 🇿🇦
South Africa, Western Cape | Chardonnay
Rare, precise, and profoundly elegant, Capensis Fijnbosch Chardonnay is the pinnacle expression from one of South Africa’s highest-altitude vineyards. Sourced exclusively from the revered “Flowers” block at nearly 600 metres above sea level in Stellenbosch, this wine is crafted only in exceptional vintages by winemaker Graham Weerts—and it shows.
🍐 Pure, Textural & Mountain-Fresh:
The nose is a finely woven tapestry of white pear, lemon blossom, wet stone, and subtle toasty oak. On the palate, it’s layered and poised—delivering crystalline citrus, green apple, and almond cream, all wrapped in sleek minerality and framed by electric acidity. The finish is long, focused, and deeply satisfying.
⛰️ A Singular Site, a Singular Expression:
Fijnbosch means “fine bush” in Afrikaans—a nod to the wild, floral fynbos vegetation that surrounds this exceptional vineyard. With high elevation, cool nights, and granite-rich soils, the “Flowers” block offers fruit of rare purity and energy.
🍽️ Perfect with Elegant, Rich Dishes:
Pair with lobster tail in butter, roast chicken with tarragon, seared scallops, or lemon risotto. A perfect companion to both refined dishes and quiet moments of reflection.
✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Capensis Fijnbosch Chardonnay is South African Chardonnay at its most sublime—an elegant, high-altitude masterpiece made only when nature allows. For lovers of Grand Cru Chablis or top-flight Californian whites, this is a world-class wine with soul and altitude.
