Description
Chardonnay is undoubtedly one of the favorite grapes of the Jordan winery in Stellenbosch, South Africa. In recent years, they have increasingly specialized in Chardonnay wines. This Unoaked Chardonnay is a prime example. A wonderfully fresh and juicy wine, aged without oak. The nose reveals fresh aromas of lime, slightly riper yellow fruit, and nuts. The lovely crisp acidity on the palate ensures a very pleasant finish.
This Chardonnay is barrel-fermented with carefully selected French yeasts. After fermentation, the wine is aged "sur lie" in stainless steel vats for four months. It's perfect as an aperitif and pairs wonderfully with all kinds of fish and fish dishes.
Stellenbosch is South Africa's most famous wine region. It boasts the most top estates and is surrounded by mountains (Helderberg and Simonsberg) with vineyards in every direction. Stellenbosch also boasts the only university in South Africa with a viticulture department.

Jordan Winery is professionally run by Gary and Kathy Jordan. Not only do they make excellent wines, Jordan's restaurant, bistro and guesthouses are also worth a visit.
Kathy and Gary Jordan, after both working abroad for two years, took over the domain purchased by Gary's parents in 1982 in 1992. Fortunately, Gary was already involved in the planting in the 1980s. Gary is a geologist and used his knowledge to analyze the terroir to ensure that each grape variety was planted in the right place. Today, Jordan benefits greatly from these choices. Their vines are now mature enough to provide fantastic complexity, while other producers are just beginning to plant the right vines in the right soil. Jordan is the only estate in Stellenbosch that has vineyards planted in every direction. It is a real family business where high quality wines have been made for years. They combine the ripe, concentrated and fruity accessibility of the New World and the complex structure of classic wines. The international appreciations are therefore enormous. For example, the flagship, the Nine Yards hardonnay, has already been named 'Best Chardonnay of the World' twice by the wine magazine Decanter and has also won the Proefschrift Wijnconcours. In 2014, even the 'regular' Barrel Fermented Chardonnay was crowned 'Best Chardonnay in the World' by Decanter! In addition, they also became South African 'Producer of the Year' at IWSC in 2014.
The wines from the Chameleon range have been produced by Jordan since 1993. With the proceeds of these wines, 4 research projects are currently being funded that focus their research on the Kaapse Dwerg Kameleon (Kaapse Dwerg Verkleurmannetjie in Afrikaans). The habitat of this small chameleon species is threatened by urbanization and intensive agriculture, causing more and more of the animal's natural habitat (fynbos) to disappear. By gaining more insight into the living pattern of these (hard to find) animals, it is hoped that they can be saved from extinction. The wines used for this range naturally have the quality one would expect from Gary and Cathy Jordan, but are especially made for the moments that call for wine for festive and relaxed moments; in other words, perfect for a braai with friends!
