VINTAGE:
2023

MORE INFORMATION:
Rustenberg is a well-known producer of premium Chardonnay and the Unwooded Chardonnay is the only unoaked iteration of this varietal in the Rustenberg range. The aim is to create a wine that, without the influence of oak, expresses the varietal character and generosity of Chardonnay when the finest fruit is vinified for this purpose. This wine is made using the wild yeast present on the grapes at the time of harvesting and aged on lees for further palate weight and complexity, and complements the wine’s citrus fruit profile to create a wine that can be enjoyed on its own or with food.
