Information about "Rickety Bridge Foundation Stone Chardonnay 2024"
The Rickety Bridge Foundation Stone Chardonnay 2024 showcases the finesse typical of a cool climate. This wine greets the senses with fragrant notes of stone fruit, almond blossoms, and a gentle touch of oak. It presents a remarkable balance and serene fullness, revealing sophistication and subtle depths with every sip. Peaches and citrus intertwine on the palate, complemented by a distinct creaminess. This Chardonnay expertly joins freshness with texture, delivering both vibrancy and satisfaction.
These wines honor the very foundations upon which culture is built – a foundation stone. Each bottle serves as a tribute to what endures through the transmission of wisdom across generations.
Grapes sourced from premier vineyards in Franschhoek and Elgin underwent destemming and crushing for half the harvest, while the other half was pressed whole. The juice was clarified in stainless steel tanks before fermentation commenced at up to 18° Balling. Subsequently transferred into Austrian oak barrels (Stockinger) and 500-litre French oak barrels, both fermentation and maturation occurred in these vessels, developing layered complexity, refined texture, and harmonious integration of fruit and wood.
