Profound and multi layered, it shows a striking resemblance to a young Coche – Dury Meursault!, YES this is a bold statement, and
I will stick to my statement, based on years of first hand experienced of working
and pouring the wine!

the least, this is without a doubt South Africa’s most complete Chardonnay, produce
