Tesserlaarsdal - Chardonnay 2023

Grape Varieties:

Chardonnay (100%)

Winemaking Method & Maturation

The Tesselaarsdal Chardonnay 2023 employs a refined approach to winemaking, influenced by the cool climate and challenging conditions of the Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge in South Africa. The entire harvest was completed before the onset of rain in March, ensuring healthy grapes that benefited from natural irrigation and reduced water stress during the crucial ripening period.

The maturation process for this wine involves five months of ageing, with a significant portion—45 amphorae—used alongside neutral oak vessels. This combination allows the wine to maintain a crystalline purity and freshness, steering clear of heavy oak influence and prioritizing the expression of fruit and minerality native to the vineyard site.

These thoughtful techniques result in a wine that captures the character of the vintage and site, showing elegance and finesse from vineyard to bottle.

This wine expresses a vivid aromatic profile highlighted by white citrus tones and pronounced limestone minerality, giving a sense of freshness and definition that is typical of its cool Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge origin.

On the palate
The palate follows through with elegance, marked by freshness and purity. The white citrus fruit carries onto the tongue, complemented by the mineral character and a well-integrated, elegant finish, showcasing restraint and poise rather than overt ripeness.
