Atlas Swift Wellington Chardonnay 2023
R465.00
(R2,789.99 for 6 x 750ml)
Presenting a pale lemon hue, this tantalizing wine enchants with intense fragrances reminiscent of green pineapples, mangos and fresh limes. A hint of Flor yeast and Fynbos adds another layer of complexity to its vibrant aromatic profile.
This medium-bodied wine is both rich in structure and beautifully balanced across fruit, acidity and oak. You will sense the lasting fruity richness, rounded off with a whisper of green almonds for an exquisite close.
The grapes were hand-harvested, de-stemmed and transferred to French oak barrels (20% new and the balance made up of 2nd and 3rd fill oak) where it underwent alcoholic fermentation without the addition of cultured yeasts. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation took place in all the barrels. Matured in oak for a total period of 12 months, with lees stirring once a week to enhance the texture. Aged in bottle for a further 6 months prior to its release.
