MAN Vintners Chardonnay 2009

This refreshing style of chardonnay is made with a touch of oak for added complexity and richness. Melon, tropical fruit and citrus aromas, a rounded palate with butterscotch notes and prominent fruit flavours.

A versatile wine that will complement virtually any food. Serve chilled.

in the vineyard : 2009 was a relatively easy harvest, with near ideal weather conditions. Vineyards remained stress-free and healthy, ripening their crops easily. In general, the quality of the harvest for both red and white wines was very good.
about the harvest: Grapes were hand harvested at full ripeness. After pressing and settling, the must was inoculated with South African yeast.
in the cellar : 15% of the wine was fermented in small American oak barrels; the remaining wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation all the wine was placed in stainless steel tanks, lying on the lees for 4 and ½ months with regular stirring. Fined and filtered before bottling.
