Sumaridge Chardonnay, Overberg, Western Cape, South Africa 2017
Hemel-en-Aarde, South Africa
Tasting Notes
94/100 Tim Atkin MW. A chardonnay with striking minerality and freshness of aromas. Flavours of lime, quince and citrus blossom are underpinned by a rich texture mouth feel which is the result of maturation in french oak (25% new). Very versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of different dishes.
