2022 | Hamilton Russell Vineyards Chardonnay | Hemel-en-Aarde Bianco with fine tannins and subtleSubtle at first on the nose and palate, this builds with floral aromas and a hint of spice, together with succulent white peach and pear fruit on the palate. Oak is supple and beautifully integrated. Deceptively powerful, there is a mineral, almost steely, edge which will give this a long future. 100% barrel fermentation in Franois Frres oak, 23% new wood, 5% malolactic conversion. Another fine wine from Emul Ross, and a classic example of Chardonnay
