Description

Experience the unparalleled elegance of Kloof Chardonnay from Iona, a wine that stands as a testament to South Africa’s unique terroir. Sourced from the esteemed Kloof Vineyard, this Chardonnay offers a precise and intricate profile that is rare in the region.

On the nose, expect a delightful burst of soft white pear intertwined with bright limey citrus notes, creating a refreshing and inviting aroma. The palate is where this wine truly shines, with razor-sharp acidity that cuts through the fruit’s richness, perfectly balanced by well-judged oak. The result is a wine that is both layered and focused, offering a complexity that deepens with every sip.

What sets Kloof Chardonnay apart is its oyster shell minerality, a slight saline note, and a long, elegant finish that leaves a lasting impression. The wine’s good weight on the back palate ensures a satisfying experience, making it a standout choice for those who appreciate fine wine with significant ageing potential.

Ideal for pairing with seafood or enjoyed on its own, Kloof Chardonnay is a must-try for connoisseurs and casual wine lovers alike.
