Kershaw Deconstructed Chardonnay CY96 2017
The grape material for Kershaw Deconstructed Chardonnay CY96 comes from the cool Elgin region of the Western Cape, also known as the Lake District. This Chardonnay clone produces wines of aromatic and elegant character with slightly lower alcohol content, wonderful lightness and remarkable balance. Its seductive fruit profile with subtle hints of lemon and orange peel and fragrant peach blossom will add subtle nutty elements over time. The Chardonnay vines for this wine thrive in Cartref soil, which is composed of decomposed sandstone, pebbles and quartz, transferring delicately delicious finesse and complex fruit intensity to the wine. The use of 50% new oak in the wine ageing process brings discreetly restrained and well-integrated wood tones into the wine.
Richard Kershaw's immense passion and love for South Africa's Elgin region and noble grape varieties are both the inspiration and the foundation of the Kershaw Deconstructed Chardonnay wine range, consisting of three different Chardonnay clones grown in the western part of the Elgin region.
