Chardonnay by Aaldering Vineyards & Wines is made in the South African region of Stellenbosch, one of the most suitable areas of the country. Label with an international profile, inspired by French models also in the use of wood in the various phases of winemaking. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature, in stainless steel and wooden tanks. The wine matures for a few months in oak barrels before being bottled. The result is a Chardonnay that perfectly reflects the character of the territory, enveloping and soft, with an open and very expressive bouquet, with intense and deep aromas, ranging from yellow fruit to hints of vanilla and spices. Large and complex sip, which anticipates a persistent and very harmonious finish. Interesting, worth discovering.

Aaldering Vineyards & Wines, founded in 2004 by the Dutch couple Marianne and Fons Aaldering, is located in Stellenbosch, one of the wine-growing areas of excellence, in the Cape Winelands district, Western Cape province, immersed in the peace and tranquility of the vineyards that surround it and just 45 km from the city of Cape Town. The terroir is that of the Devon Valley, in particular the areas of Hutton (characterised by soil rich in granite, reddish-brown in color due to the presence of iron oxide hydrate) and Clovelly (soil similar to that of Hutton but more clayey) . This area is well known for the quality of red wines produced from grape varieties: Pinotage, Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the same ones grown by the winery. The wines are produced with great care and passion, with the assistance of a reliable and devoted staff. Elements of both organic and biodynamic agriculture are used, preferring organic products and trying to minimize chemical ones as much as possible, making the most of what nature has to offer.
