Description
The Chardonny grapes for this Chardonaay from Lievland are destemmed, cooled and softly pressed after picking. Fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks with as little contact with oxygen as possible. This benefits the aroma and freshness. After a few months of maturation (sur lie) on the fine sediment of inactive yeast cells, the wine is clarified and filtered.
The Chardonnay from Lievland Vineyards is an almost French-sounding chardonnay. It is a delicious fresh and juicy wine, without wood aging. On the nose the fresh aromas of lime, somewhat riper yellow fruit and nuts. The beautiful fresh acids in the mouth ensure a very pleasant aftertaste.
FACT: The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will often also receive a nice discount . You will see your discount immediately when you choose 'Pick up' on the checkout page. We are located in Dordrecht almost next to the A16 with plenty of parking. Click here for our address.

Riaan Möller - Head winemaker at Lievland: "South African wines are called wines from 'the new world', But with the long history of grape growing in the Cape, I think it's better to say that we find the perfect balance between new and old-fashioned styles. At Lievland Vineyards, we are fortunate to work with top-quality Stellenbosch terroir. We take classic varieties and make wines traditionally, striving for the perfect balance between old-fashioned elegance and bright fruit from the new world."
