Pale lemon in colour, it opens with lifted aromas of orange blossom, lime zest, green apple, and a subtle hint of peach. On the palate, this Franschhoek Chardonnay is crisp and lively, with bright citrus and orchard fruit flavours supported by a gentle creaminess from lees contact. The texture adds a soft roundness, balancing the wine’s natural acidity, before finishing clean, zesty, and refreshing.
