Vriesenhof Unwooded Chardonnay 2025

On appearance the colour is golden with a light greenish hue. Baked apple crumble on the nose with lifted citrus notes. This is a rich wine, with aromas concentrated by 8 months maturation on lees. The palate reveals layers of varietal Chardonnay flavours. Stone fruits, citrus, delicious acidity and length. All held neatly in check by a long, creamy finish.

Will pair well with a variety of pasta dishes as well as grilled fish, and mediterranean inspired roast vegetables.
