Great Heart Stellenbosch Chardonnay 2024
£20.75
The wine
Attractive lemon rind, red apple, wet stone and melba toast. Bracing on the palate.
From a single vineyard on a cool south-facing slope, which in the southern hemisphere is the aspect that stays shaded and slows ripening. Stellenbosch is the historic heart of Cape wine, and its mountain sites are cool enough for Chardonnay to hold its line. Great Heart is a Mullineux project made to support education for the children of vineyard workers in the Cape.
