De Wetshof Estate, Robertson Valley (South Africa) Chardonnay 2021

May 25, 2022

By Miranda Franco

 South African Chardonnay should be in your regular rotation as a new generation of winemakers and growers are taking it to a new level.  This South African 2021 un-oaked Chardonnay impresses with refreshing grapefruit, grilled nuts, wet stone, and slight ginger notes.  The palate unfolds with richness and mouthwatering acidity that crescendos with subtle spice, crushed minerals, and an explosion of citrus.
