2021 Estate Reserve Chardonnay, Glenelly Estate, Stellenbosch
A a luminous white gold, with vibrant citrus, lime zest and hints of butterscotch on the nose. The palate is lush, with a creamy texture that is countered by a firm minerality with nuances of toasted almond and vanilla. Theres an intriguing, almost nervous energy here.
"Opening with aromas of lime candy, pear drop and sweet citrus, the 2020 Estate Reserve Chardonnay offers vibrant and lively tones of pineapple and pomelo on the nose. Medium-bodied, the palate remains fresh and zippy before ending with succulent acidity that lingers on to the finish. It’s a delightful, food-friendly wine."
