2023 Vriesenhof Vineyards Estate Chardonnay Unwooded 0.75 Ltr. White
picture of

Beautiful nose with aromas of peach and cream. A pungent touch of citrus and a delicate touch of white blossom add tension and finesse. Pure style that lets us enjoy pure unprocessed chardonnay. On the palate, it is deliciously creamy. Mild but refreshing acidity adds balance and life to the wine. Deliciously full and balanced finish.

Seafood, fried white fish, salads with chicken or fish and soft, young cheeses.
