Golden Kaan Chardonnay 2011

in the vineyard : About The Area
South Africa's vineyards are mostly situated in the Western Cape near the coast. This is the southernmost region of the African continent, and has a Mediterranean type climate and diverse soils perfectly suited to quality grape production.

Vintage Conditions
The 2011 harvest in the Western Cape was warmer and drier than normal, resulting in lower yields, smaller bunches and consequently riper flavours. These seasonal conditions produced sound fully ripe and healthy grapes, with the resultant wines being rich, soft and generous in flavour.

in the cellar : Maturation: 40% wooded component
