Product Notes

Paul Cluver Wines Chardonnay is a delightfully superior white wine from South Africa's esteemed Elgin region. Elegant on the nose, with notes of ripe citrus, subtle oak, and hints of buttery undertones, it graces the palate with rich, smooth flavours, tastefully balanced by a crisp acidity. Hand-harvested and meticulously crafted, this wine embodies an exquisite blend of complexity and finesse. Perfect when paired with seafood or poultry, the Chardonnay from Paul Cluver Wines undoubtedly delivers a wine-tasting experience like no other. Ideal for those special dinner parties, or simply when a glass of excellence is desired.

Tasting Notes

The wine shows a light hay hue in colour, with citrus, some stone fruit and oak notes on the nose. Tangerine fruit and citrus blossom fragrances are apparent, with hints of vanilla pod and almond flakes. The palate is an exciting combination of crisp citrus fruit with great complexity and concentration. The balanced, fresh acidity is natural, and adds focus to the wine.
