Piekenierskloof Six Hats Chardonnay 2022

This un-oaked Chardonnay style is well rounded and combines layers of rich red apple aromas and juicy pineapple flavors. It has some citrus and
vanilla on the aftertaste. Well balanced with a clean fresh finish.

about the harvest: Grapes were handpicked very early in the morning allowing the fruit to retain their natural flavor.
