Chardonnay
Description
False Bay Crystalline Chardonnay 2025 is produced by Waterkloof through its False Bay Vineyards range, a collection focused on honest, naturally made wines that overdeliver for everyday drinking. Waterkloof, based on the Schapenberg slopes above False Bay in Stellenbosch, is widely respected for regenerative farming, minimal intervention winemaking and wines with a clear sense of place.
Â
Fruit for this Chardonnay is sourced from sustainably farmed coastal vineyards where ocean influence helps preserve natural acidity and freshness. The wine is wild fermented and made without oak, allowing the fruit and mineral character to remain front and centre. This style suits drinkers looking for Chardonnay with energy, restraint and clarity rather than heaviness.
Â
Colour:
Pale straw with bright green flashes and youthful brilliance.
Â
Nose:
Fresh aromas of green apple, lemon zest and white pear lead, followed by hints of wet stone and subtle citrus blossom.
Â
Palate:
Crisp and linear, with flavours of orchard fruit, grapefruit and lemon. The texture is clean and focused, with bright acidity carrying the palate. Unoaked handling keeps the wine taut, fresh and precise.
