This Cap Maritime Chardonnay, already lauded by Jancis Robinson (scoring a fantastic 17/20!), demonstrates the remarkable impact of the nearby Atlantic Ocean. Enologist Gottfried Mocke prioritizes texture and aroma over pure fruit exuberance, skillfully extracting a vibrant and youthful expression from the Hemel-en-Aarde terroir. Fermentation occurs spontaneously in concrete, complemented by gentle lees stirring (batonnage), which amplifies the wine’s complexity. The use of French oak, both new and older barrels, adds elegance and structure. It’s a truly refreshing choice, perfect alongside grilled fish or seafood – a memory-making pairing, wouldn’t you say?
