TASTING NOTES The 2023 Beeslaar Chardonnay exhibits fragrant aromas of citrus fruits and green apples. On the palate, ripe pineapple flavours contrast delicately with the mineral nucleus of the wine. In addition to the delicate acidity that interweaves with the perfectly balanced core, the moderate alcohol content contributes to a palate-pleasing and revitalising finish. VINTAGE CONDITIONS The 2023 season began with mild and dry conditions which had a crucial impact on grape quantity and quality, and ended wet. Drier conditions limited berry mass and subsequently yields, but also ensured outstanding quality. The cool ripening period aided early cultivars. Vigorous growth after the December thunderstorms caused temporary deficiencies which then recovered later in the season. VINIFICATION The grapes were handpicked and...
Tasting Notes Aromatics of green apple, dried apricots, completed with hints of jasmine. The pallet is rich, creamy and shows good concentration, balanced by a bright acidity that adds backbone to the wine. Winemaker's Notes The grapes were harvested in the early morning and processed reductively to preserve flavours and aromas. After settling out all rough lees, the juice was racked and inoculated with a selected yeast strain and fermented between 13 and 15 degrees Celsius. Filtered and bottled in March 2024. Serving Suggestion Will pair well with most seafood dishes, goats cheese or roasted pork belly. Varietal: 100% Chenin Blanc ALC: 14.0% | pH: 3.58 | RS: 1.57 g/l | TA: 6.0 g/l

Ataraxia Chardonnays are made with complete deference to expressing our terroir over trying to conjure an expression of the grape itself through winemaking alchemy. In the quest for accuracy of this expression, spontaneous fermentation comprised part of a minimalist, non-interventionist winemaking approach. This wine is 100% barrel fermented and matured in specially selected small French oak barriques sourced exclusively from Burgundian coopers. The result is a Chardonnay that is New World in provenance but Old World in stylistic leaning. Broad-shouldered but narrow-hipped, it effortlessly manages to be both subtle and intense. An assertive mineral acidity is beautifully balanced by a compelling intensity of fruit. A stylish, world-class Chardonnay.

37% Viognier | 34% Roussanne | 19% Marsanne | 10% Grenache Blanc The legend goes that some errant members of Fairview’s long-established goatherd once escaped from their paddock into the Fairview vineyards after Charles Back’s young son Jason accidentally left the gate open.

Those berries have been used to make this white blend, a light bright green, medium bodied wine with aromas of apricots and pear and a zesty acidity. Food Pairing: A lovely pairing with cream-based seafood and pasta dishes. Additional Information Winemaker: Anthony de Jager | Area: Paarl / Darling / Stellenbosch Alcohol: 13.45 % by...
