Capensis, Stellenbosch (Western Cape, South Africa) Chardonnay 2021

 Capensis is a Jackson Family project in South Africa.  As you would expect from the Jackson Family, the wines are very good.  This offering, their “entry level” (a term I dislike, but am at a loss for an alternative), conveys mild fruitiness and invigorating bright acidity.  Thankfully not overdone, nor opulent, it remains an engaging wine that shows off the allure of Chardonnay.
