Description:
A tight, minerally wine with classic Hamilton Russell Vineyards length and complexity. Unusually prominent pear and lime fruit aromas and flavours are brought beautifully into focus by a tight line of bright natural acid and a long, dry minerality. An elegant, yet textured and intense wine with a strong personality of both place and vintage.
Winery:
Hamilton Russell Vineyards
Since 1975, Hamilton Russell’s terroir driven Pinot noir and Chardonnay have set the bar for South African wine. As one of the most southerly wine estates in South Africa and one of the closest to the sea - just 3 kilometres adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean, they aim to produce wines that could express the beauty and personality of this cool, maritime region. Their elegant, highly individual estate grown Pinot noir and Chardonnay are widely regarded as the best in South Africa and among the finest in the New World.
