Iona Single Vineyard Fynbos Chardonnay 2018

PRICE PER BOX OF 6

The Fynbos Vineyard has well-drained soils that are rich in clay with north-facing slopes that result in a rich, gorgeous, fleshy, generous wine. Nuanced and multi-layered, this vineyard produces wines with more depth and weight. The wine is perfumed and mineral with notes of soft white pear, stone fruit and bright citrus. This is a sumptuous wine whose fruit profile has both depth and breadth, and great structure that allows for significant ageing potential. 

“ Two Vineyards called Kloof and Kroon. Both differ markedly from each other, suggesting that the term “terroir” is meaningful in this context. One is palpably “earthier”, while the other as an almost crystalline purity. They are likely to cement Elgins and Iona’s reputation for the so-called heartbreak grape and add to the growing fascination with single-site wines. ”
