Chardonnay 2008 - Vergelegen : Chardonnay 2008 - Weißwein von VergelegenIn zartes Grün-Gold gehüllt erfreut der Chardonnay 2008 von Vergelegen das Auge.

Winemaker's Notes:

The grapes were sourced from Vergelegen’s premium vineyards located on South/South West facing slopes. The soils are Helderberg granite or Clovelly. Rootstock used is R 110 - which is very suitable for dry-land conditions. As a result of cool conditions and wind, yields were extremely low at 4.5 tons/ha. No skin contact is employed. The majority of the grapes were whole bunch pressed. 40% of the wine was barrel fermented and matured on the lees for 10 months. The remainder (60%) was fermented in stainless steel tanks. Pale green-gold colour with intensely focused flavours showing citrus, biscuits, toast and ripe fruits. The palate is long and elegant with excellent fruit / wood integration.
