PAUL CLUVER CHARDONNAY

Appellation: Elgin, South Africa

This wine is bursting with aromas of citrus, marmalade, oak and a lovely toastiness. The palate is complex with a combination of ripe fruit, citrus, mineral flavors and oak. The aftertaste is long and lingering.

"Complex nose melds ripe stone fruits, creamed corn and nutty, smoky, toasty oak scents. Rich, sweet and chewy, with a strong barrel toastiness and an edge of citrus skin. Not especially fruity, but offers an interesting push-pull of acids and oaky sweetness."

Steve Tanzer's International Wine Cellar  (2003 vintage)
“Plump, with juicy pear, fig and toast notes. Fresh acidity and minerality keeps it honest on the finish. Drink now.”
