Tasting Note

Very bright, polished platinum with green, vivacious hue. Complex, appealing nose with pear, citrus and floral notes developing into lemon cream, oatmeal, and marzipan richness. On the palate the wine is medium bodied and linear but retains generous focused citrus fruit flavours with sleek, balanced, and crisp acidity. The wine remains vivacious and fresh on the finish with clean citrus fruit and stony minerality. The wine has a long, very pleasant lingering finish. Decanting and exposure to air opens the aroma and palate of the wine.

Product Notes

Enhanced in South Africa, the Meerlust Estate Chardonnay wine presents a distinctive, luscious palette. It boasts a graceful yellow hue with a vibrant green undertone. The nose introduces beautiful lime and stern citrus notes, gracefully merging with an array of toasted oak fragrances. This medium-bodied Chardonnay exhibits a bright acidity and remarkable consistency. Every sip enfolds an enticing melange of vanilla, citrus peel and pear flavours. A dash of minerality augments its lingering finish, leaving an exhilarating taste on the palate. It's a precise illustration of terroir expression and traditional winemaker's art. Meerlust Estate Chardonnay is elegance personified.
