Description

The Lanzerac Chardonnay reveals an excellent balance between fruit, acidity and softness with beautiful oak integration and balance of acidity.  This terrific Chardonnay offers a lot of bang for your buck, especially given the amount of work that goes into it.


With a history dating back to 1692 Lanzerac is one of oldest wine farms in South Africa and is home to the first bottled Pinotage. 


The grapes  for this wine were handpicked and hand sorted with 70% fermented in a mixture 2nd, 3rd and 4th fill barrels and 30% in stainless steel tanks. Each vineyard block used for the Lanzerac Chardonnay is treated differently with different yeast and fermentation regimes, depending on the parcel in any given vintage. After fermentation the Chardonnay in the barrels are left on the lees and batonage is done every week for 7-8 months. After 9 months the Chardonnay is blended and prepared for bottling.

    Puligny Montrachet Meunier.JPG

    2021 Puligny Montrachet, Domaine Meunier

    Chardonnay

    The grapes for this approachable Puligny are hand harvested and undergo a gentle pressing.  The juice is then left to settle for a few days then put into French oak barrels, 30% of which are new. Indigenous yeasts are used for fermentation and the wine spends 12 months in barrel before being blended and bottled.  Great persistence in the mouth, this wine has a wonderful freshness to it and can be enjoyed in it's youth.
