Aaldering Wines Estate Chardonnay Stellenbosch 2022

This great Chardonnay from South Africa clearly shows how diverse this country's wine region is. What Aaldering has bottled here in recent years is always impressive and receives top ratings regularly.

A Chardonnay, as we like to call it, is like something out of a picture book. It has everything an excellent wine requires - ripe fruit, great citrus aromas, exotic flavours and a touch of honey. Subtle vanilla aromas accompany the wine beautifully until the first sip.

Unexpectedly mineral, great exotic fruit, then citrus again and a very nice creamy texture, which can be attributed to the long maturation of the fine yeast and the aging process in barriques. The French wood underlines this powerful Chardonnay perfectly, almost enough to bite into - the long finish rounds off the great overall impression.

Great wine for real Chardonnay lovers - a definite recommendation!
