De Wetshof The Site Chardonnay 2023 is a site-specific white wine from the Robertson Valley estate. This bottling is produced from a single vineyard characterised by its high limestone content and rocky terrain. The growing season allowed for a slow ripening process, preserving the vibrant acidity and concentrated fruit flavours of the Chardonnay grapes. It offers a profile of lemon curd, toasted almonds and a distinct flinty minerality. Following maturation in French oak, the wine displays a harmonious integration of wood and fruit, resulting in a structured and elegant palate that is built for medium-term cellaring.
