Vintage: 2012 Type: White Producer: Sumaridge Variety : Chardonnay Designation: n/a Vineyard: n/a Country: South Africa

Great purity, freshness and finesse for this vintage. A difficult vintage resulting a concentrated, fruit-driven, intense wine. Cherry, mulberry with a hint of earth. Very lean and fresh on the palate with remarkable  length and purity.

Full body, structure, concentration, ripe fruit, spicy. Balanced and long life. Very small quantity produced just in top vintages.

The aromas are so complex yet subtle wtih wet earth, mushrooms and dark fruits. Dried flowers as well. Full body, chewy tannins that are ultra-fine and powerful, yet there is a finesse and beauty to them as I said from barrel. Classic, great nebbiolo

A complex and persistent bouquet of violet, berries and chocolate. It has an enveloping warmth, smooth and perfectly structured with a characteristic background of plum, bitter cherry, raspberry and strawberry jam. Velvety smooth finish.

The Nose is delicate, expressive and complex, the aromas of black fruit, morello cherry and more floral notes mingle with perfection. On the palate the attack is supple, the wine is dense and the tannins silky. A great complexity, a nice delicacy and a very long persistence in the mouth will give this wine a great drinkability. The 2015 vintage comes...
