Julien Schaal ‘Evidence’ Chardonnay 2023

R385.00

Julien and Sophie Schaal, a talented French couple, bring their expertise to this Chardonnay.

The grapes for this wine was sourced from vineyards on the highest slopes of Paul Cluver in Elgin. This vineyard produces small concentrated berries, packed with flavour.

Grapes are hand harvested and whole bunch pressed before fermentation in mostly older oak, with 25% new barrels. The result is a wine displaying gentle tropical fruit and vanilla notes ending with a beautifully textured mouthfeel.

Description

These are South African wines, via French hands. Julien and his wife Sophie live and make delicious Riesling in Alsace, France in the village of Saint-Hippolyte in the Colmar region. Julien’s wines show elegance while remaining concentrated and are true to both origin and cultivar.
