From the original Hemel-en-Aarde estate, winemaker Emul Ross is making better and better wines. This is a chiselled Chardonnay, with plenty of ginger spice, while there's also a beautiful core of citrus fruit. A hint of oak spice on the finish adds complexity.
Ever the class act, Hamilton Russell's Chardonnay is in a rich vein of form right now. Using only 5% malolactic because of the warmer year, this is fresh, layered and detailed, with perfumed 23% new wood, notes of brioche and lemon butter and a stylish, stony finish. Concentrated without being heavy in any way. 2023-29
