Country: South Africa / Cape Winemakers Guild CWG
Variety: Chardonnay Stellenbosch
Winery: Jordan Stellenbosch /
Winemaker: Gary Jordan. This is a superripe and opulent Chardonnay, in line with Jordan’s brand style. Notes of honeyed melon, creamed lemon and grilled apple abound on the nose and mouth, with additional hints of dried, spiced orange peel on the medium-length finish. A bit more acidity would have helped to lend better counterbalance to the wine’s richness. Drink over the short term.
