Information about "Groot Constantia Chardonnay 2024"
The Groot Constantia Chardonnay 2024 epitomizes exceptional craftsmanship in winemaking. Its bright straw hue captivates the eye, while the nose is alive with classic Chardonnay aromas of fresh lemons, zesty limes, and ripe stone fruit, all beautifully intertwined with delicate notes of vanilla and orange blossom. On the palate, this Chardonnay offers a sumptuous experience, revealing a creamy texture accompanied by hints of buttery caramel, citrus fruits, and toasted almonds. The dynamic acidity ensures a refreshing clarity that delights the senses.
The Groot Constantia Chardonnay underwent fermentation with 35% in new oak, 40% in second-fill, and 25% in third-fill barrels, followed by ten months of maturation in French barriques, with regular lees stirring (bâtonnage).
