Information about "Survivor Cellar Master Chardonnay 2022"
The Survivor Cellar Master Chardonnay 2022 emerges from 25-year-old vines rooted in decomposed Bokkeveld shale soils, imparting a pristine elegance and a streak of flintiness. Cultivated in the heart of Klein Karoo, this vineyard benefits from a climate of warm days and cool nights, essential for the development of color and fruit character. This terroir-driven wine boasts a medium to high intensity, highlighted by a youthful bouquet of spring blossoms, crisp yellow apples, dried pineapple, cinnamon, ripe grapefruit, and mandarin peel. Subtle notes of almond skins, bay leaves, and chamomile complete the fruit, offering a refined, spicy finish. On the palate, a sorbet-like intensity unfolds, with vibrant acidity driving the fruit to the back of the palate, revealing a distinct mineral quality. An exceptional Chardonnay!
Die Trauben wurden am frühen Morgen von Hand geerntet, um sicherzustellen, dass sie kühl im Keller ankamen und sofort als ganze Trauben gepresst werden konnten. Es wurde ein langes, schonendes „Champagner”-Pressprogramm gewählt, bei dem der gesamte Saft in einen Tank gepumpt wurde und über Nacht absetzte.
