2022 Leeu Passant Stellenbosch Chardonnay
£60.00
“The 2022 Chardonnay Stellenbosch comes from a plot around four kilometres from False Bay at 400 metres up the Helderberg Mountain, which slows down the growth cycle. This spent 12 months in 30% new French oak, then it was racked, blended and moved to tank to rest for six months. This has a wonderfully vibrant bouquet that makes an immediate impression: yellow fruit, hints of peach skin, egg whites and light almond scents. The palate is well balanced with pinpoint acidity, palpable mineralité and ample tension toward the finish. This is one of the best whites that Chris and Andrea Mullineux have made.”
