Hartenberg Doorkeeper Chardonnay 2024

Pale lemon in colour, with enticing aromas of Golden Delicious apples and a whisper of orange blossom. On the palate, a creamy texture mingles with fresh notes of pear and a delicate citrus undertone. The wine is beautifully balanced, exuding an elegant charm.

Style: Chalky, lemon notes. Fresh, fruit forward and balanced on the palate.

The label displays the original doorkeep (handle) on the historic doors of the Hartenberg underground facility, where the wine is matured prior to bottling. The facility was built after the auction purchase of a side door from the Castle of Good Hope that needed a home. There is also a hidden/unspoken symbolism that the Doorkeeper Chardonnay gate keeps for the triumvirate of other Chardonnays in the Hartenberg portfolio.
in the cellar : An expression of what Hartenberg Estate is able to do with Chardonnay in a younger, modern and upfront wine style, fermented in stainless steel, sans wood. The Chardonnay fruit includes younger parcels of the grape which are wonderfully expressive and offer earlier accessibility.
