Cultivated at an elevation of two hundred meters above sea level and influenced by the refreshing ocean breeze, the grapes for the Chardonnay DMZ develop. They give rise to robust tropical fruit fragrances, accompanied by gentle undertones of vanilla and peach, all subtly enhanced by delicate wood notes. This wine is rich and full-bodied!

The palate is rich and creamy, with a well-balanced acidity that brings freshness and vibrancy to the wine. Flavors of ripe peach, melon, and lemon zest dominate, accompanied by a delicate oak influence that provides structure and complexity. The wine's medium body and smooth texture make it a pleasure to sip, while the lingering finish leaves a lasting impression.

Winery: DeMorgenzon
Region: Western Cape
The Western Cape is a province of South Africa located in the south-western corner of the country. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Eastern Cape to the east, and the Northern Cape to the north. The Western Cape is home to some of the world's most renowned wine regions, making it a paradise for wine lovers.
The Western Cape has a long and rich history of winemaking. The first vines were planted in the region in 1655 by Dutch settlers, and the first commercial winery was established in 1685. Since then, the region has become one of the most important wine-producing regions in South Africa.CUSTOMER RATING
