In The Vineyard

Vintage character together with site-specific expression is the key to this Chardonnay. Grapes were selected from one exceptional cool-climate vineyard block in the Faure area of Stellenbosch with well-drained soils and a naturally low yield.

The Harvest

Long cool ripening season that allowed full varietal flavour formation in our Chardonnay with great analysis for expressive wines with potential. Grapes were hand-harvested at an average ripeness of between 23.5° and 24° with bunch selection from the vineyard stage.

In The Cellar

After cold-settling the wine was transferred to barrels where fermentation was completed. The wine was matured in French oak for 10 months in second and third fill French oak. During this time the lees was stirred monthly to enhance the mouth-feel of the wine.

Here at OneDayOnly we pride ourselves on two things:

Our remarkable ability to remember quotes from practically any movie, and our skill in catering to almost any person in South Africa.

The latter is the harder of the two, because A) we haven't met everyone in the R of SA and 2) our personal tastes can hardly be used as a benchmark for things other people may enjoy.

Still, through sheer determination and never-miss-an-episode viewings of Egoli and Generations, we like to think we hit the proverbial nail on the head more often than not.

And in the almost unfathomable event that we're completely wrong and nothing on our cyber-shelves appeals to you, we'd like to leave you with the following gem from Lord of the Rings:

"Use the force, Harry." - Edward Cullen.
