Mont Rochelle Chardonnay 1996

The 1996 Mont Rochelle - de Villiers Oak matured Chardonnay is probably the flagship of the maiden vintage by Anna-Maree Mostert in our elegant Victorian cellar. It won a gold medal in the South African National Young Wine Show and has been acclaimed by critics. Dave Hughes, leading SA wine critic describes it as ’attractive bright, lemon colour. A nose that blossoms with fruit with distinctive citrussy overtones. Mouth filling with gorgeous soft, almost sweet flavours with lemon dominating discreet, supportive oak. Finishes long, rich and dry.’
