Babylonstoren Chardonnay
| Cellar: | Steenberg Farm, Cape Town, South Africa |
| Description: | The Babylonstoren Chardonnay (1 x 750ml) is an old world style Chardonnay with a fresh, fine-grained nose of quince, lime and vanilla. It has a classy, sleek structure with subtle citrus fruit softened with textured creaminess and nutty complexity. The wine exhibits tangy mineral tones with fine intensity and balance; good focus and length with a refreshing finish. Delicious butterscotch and vanilla tones from extensive maturation in French oak barrels are perfectly balanced with fresh citrus flavours and a lovely mineral finish. |
