Description
Made as a counterpoint to the rich, opulent West Block Chardonnay, the bright and aromatic East Block Chardonnay is an incredibly versatile wine. The nose begins with enticing scents of chamomile, edelweiss and leading to delicate citrus aromas of kumquat and Persian lime, suggesting a wine where the entire range of Chardonnay will be on full display. The palate is full of drive and energy with flavours of lemon, pear and freshly baked brioche, making for a wine that is compelling while still light on its feet. The 2017 vintage showcases all complexity of this grape, supported by lively movement and a persistent minerality.
