2021 Rustenberg Chardonnay Stellenbosch

Winemaker Notes:  Rustenberg is a well-known producer of high quality Chardonnays and the Stellenbosch Chardonnayembodies our house style. Careful tending and selection in the vineyard followed by traditional wild barrel fermentation and maturation produces a classic Chardonnay balancing the expression of fruit, freshness, full malolactic fermentation and the influence of oak. Apricot, coconut and orange peel aromas followed by flavors of marzipan, sponge cake and citrus rounded off with carefully judged oak and balanced, fresh acidity.
