Cape Winemakers Guild

Cape Chamonix CWG Reserve Chardonnay 2013

The grapes were de-stemmed, soft crushed and the must macerated with skins for 8 hours. Spontaneous fermentation took place in traditional 228 litre barriques. The wine was matured for 14 months and underwent malolactic fermentation. 10% of the blend was matured in concrete eggs. Tasting Notes: It has a bright straw colour with golden highlights and exquisite aroma, with scents reminiscent of tropical fruit, ginger, spice and oatmeal. Well-structured and minerally, with flavours of lime and toasted almonds on the palate. This wine is packed in wooden boxes.
