Product Notes

DeMorgenzon Reserve Chardonnay is a premium wine hailing from South Africa's Stellenbosch region. This splendidly luscious Chardonnay boasts charming hues of vibrant golden straw with an enticing bouquet brimming with notes of stark citrus, vanilla, ripe peach, buttered toast and subtle oak. On the palate, it presents itself with intricate layers of tropical fruit flavours, complimented by deftly handled oak integration and well-balanced acidity. A full-bodied wine, it finishes with remarkable grace and extended length, showcasing the hallmark creaminess of a classic Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes

Golden with green hues. Hot toasted brioche with zesty marmalade; a backbone of lime and lemongrass with floral notes of honeysuckle and frangipani on the palate. Warm, rich vanilla and a creamy almond finish.
