Product information "Stellenbosch Reserve Chardonnay 2025"
The Boschendal 1685 Chardonnay is a great wine! Its fresh, fruity and spicy bouquet of lemon, cinnamon and nutmeg pampers the senses and lets the anticipation rise with the first sip. The palate is creamy, almost buttery, with a fantastic complexity, elegant smoothness and delicious nuances of fine lemon and ripe tropical fruit.

The Chardonnay grapes fermented using selected yeast cultures, initially in stainless steel tanks, but 70% of the juice was extracted and transferred to French oak barrels before the fermentation was completed. After the fermentation was completed, the wine matured for another 10 months on the fine yeast in the barrel (12% new wood, 88% second, third and fourth filled barrels). The wines were regularly stirred (batonnage) during these 10 months to give the wine a fuller and more opulent mouthfeel.
