Product description
La Brune has access to some of the highest elevated vineyards in South Africa, at 350 meters above sea level. The Chardonnay is sourced from clone CY 277 and is 15 years old. Minimal intervention with traditional Burgundian winemaking methods. Spontaneous fermentation. 100% whole bunch fermentation. Fifty percent fermented in stainless steel, fifty percent in barrels. Aged for 14 months in untoasted 500L barrels, with 30% new. Lemon, flint and a touch of nutmeg on the nose – beautifully focused. Mouth-filling citrus, orange and lemon zest, coconut and almond – such verve which really carries on the finish. An outstanding Chardonnay.
