n 2017, Stellenbosch was the epicenter of the winery's world, Fijnbosch provided the core intensity with flavors of citrus, orange blossom, toasty brioche and peach. The E. Bruwer vineyard in Robertson adds the rich core of ripe peach and apricot with a full rounded mouthfeel. The final two vineyards utilized were Kaaimansgat and Vleiplaas. These two vineyards added complexity to the wine. The Kaaimansgat vineyards adds the minerality, which helps define the back palate. While Vleiplaas brings a hint of herbal character, providing the acid core giving the Chardonnay a delicate balance that is refreshing and tightly wound.
Grilled pineapple, dried mango, spiced pear, buttered toast and smoked almond on the nose. Medium-to full-bodied, layered and concentrated. Some waxy and smoky character. Excellent length.
Rich and toasty, a medium-bodied white, with a lush range of glazed apple, smoky grilled brioche, lemon curd and candied ginger notes reined in by sleek, well-knit acidity. The lasting finish is lightly mouthwatering, with pretty lime blossom and flint notes. Drink now through 2026.
