Vriesenhof Chardonnay (Unwooded) 2023

Bright, green-gold in appearance. Classic Chardonnay aromas of citrus and ripe apple combine seamlessly with creamy lees notes. Bracing and mineral in style.

Layers of succulent fruit flavours are balanced by perfectly balanced acidity and a lengthy, savoury finish.
