Meerlust Chardonnay 2023
2023
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Growing fine wines on the Meerlust Estate has been part of the Myburgh family tradition for 8 generations, beginning in 1756. Long recognized for producing world-class wines, the Meerlust Estate in Stellenbosch is rich in both charm and history. The wines are all made from grapes grown on the estate and matured in French oak. The Meerlust Chardonnay 2023 is a very bright pale-yellow colour with a green, vivacious hue. Complex, appealing nose of apricot, peach, pear, lemon zest and floral notes with hints of toasted almonds. On the palate the wine is well structured and linear but retains generous focused stone fruit flavours with sleek, balanced, and crisp acidity. The wine remains vivacious and fresh on the finish with clean citrus fruit underpinned by minerality. The wine has a long, very pleasant lingering finish.
