🍷 A Bold and Textural Chardonnay—Swartland Sunshine, Creamy Elegance, and Subtle Power

✨ In the Glass
Golden straw with a luminous sheen—rich and radiant, hinting at barrel influence and ripeness.

👃 On the Nose
Generous and layered. Aromas of ripe stone fruit, lemon curd, and baked apple are wrapped in hints of toasted brioche, vanilla, and a touch of smoky oak.

💫 On the Palate
Full and well-structured. Creamy texture from barrel fermentation is balanced by vibrant acidity and saline minerality. Flavours of peach, citrus zest, roasted nuts, and a whisper of spice lead to a long, refined finish.

🍽️ Food Pairing
Perfect with roast chicken, butter-poached lobster, creamy pastas, or grilled corn with herb butter. Also a fine match for soft-rind cheeses like Brie or Camembert.

⏳ Ageing Potential
Impressive now, with the ability to develop added complexity over 5–8 years.
