De Wetshof Estate6x Calcrete Chardonnay 2025

About

The name De Wetshof has been synonymous with the production of fine wines in South Africa since the 1970s. As the first registered wine estate in the Robertson Wine Valley, De Wetshof has become known internationally as South Africa’s eminent Chardonnay House due to the pioneering role it played in introducing this noble Burgundian grape to the country. 

Product Features

• Bright and fresh with pronounced citrus zest, green apple, and hints of crushed limestone
• Subtle floral undertones and a delicate mineral edge reflect the calcareous soils.
• The grapes are picked in the coolness of morning, with the emphasis on capturing the natural complexities of the Chardonnay grape immediately for the making of this unwooded wine. 
• Once de-stemming, pressing and overnight settling are complete, the juice is racked off from the sediment and pumped into stainless steel tanks for alcoholic fermentation.
• After fermentation, the wine is left on the lees under controlled temperatures.
• Weekly stirring of the yeast ensures maximum flavours are released into the wine, until ready for bottling.
• Crystalline character, nuances of wet stone, saline palate and oyster shell minerality being highlighted by the linear unwooded profile.
• Enjoy on its own, or pair with seafood dishes.
