Eikehof Chardonnay

The Eikehof Chardonnay from the traditional Eikehof Wine Estate embodies the tranquillity and elegance of the Cape Winelands. Nestled in the shade of ancient oak trees west of Franschhoek, this wine reflects the rich history of the Malherbe family, who have been making wine on the estate since 1903. Today, Francois Malherbe is the fourth generation to carry on his great-grandfather's legacy - in the same historic cellars where wine has been made for over a century.

This unwood-aged Chardonnay develops a lively bouquet of green apple, tangy lemon and a hint of lime in the glass, which immediately conveys freshness and clarity. On the palate, it is smooth, medium to full-bodied, with an elegant, lively finish that harmoniously carries the fruitiness and makes the wine a perfect companion for sunny moments.

Served slightly chilled at 8-10 °C, the Eikehof Chardonnay is ideal with grilled vegetables, light fish dishes, seafood or simply as a refreshing aperitif on warm days.

Product recommendation

Hartenberg Estate Chardonnay
Hartenberg Estate Chardonnay - Elegant white wine from StellenboschProducing a truly outstanding Chardonnay is always a great challenge for winegrowers. The fact that this grape can be found all over the world is certainly also due to the fact that it is very adaptable. But this is precisely what makes it all the more difficult for a wine-growing business. The Hartenberg Chardonnay is a positive example. The grapes are processed separately according to the individual parcels of the vineyard. Only at the end of the vinification process is the final Chardonnay blend put together under strict quality selection. The wine then matures for 11 months in French barriques.The result has been impressing wine critics all over the world for years. The wine has a wonderful aroma of white pear, tropical fruit, vanilla and roasted almonds. On the palate, these notes blend into a perfect taste. Subtly integrated oak aromas contribute to a long, creamy finish, supported by a fresh acidity.Hartenberg's Chardonnay goes perfectly with dishes with cream sauces, smoked chicken or duck or, for example, seared tuna with olive oil, lime juice and black pepper.

The Eikendal Janina Unwooded Chardonnay is a fresh Chardonnay vinified in stainless steel tanks that impresses with its lively fruit and clear structure. With enticing aromas of green apple, lemon and juicy pineapple, it develops fine nuances of honey and orange blossom on the palate, which are reflected in a refreshing, stony finish.This exceptional Chardonnay comes from carefully selected, north-facing vineyards on the Helderberg in South Africa, which grow on weathered granite and Table Mountain sandstone. The maritime climate with cool Atlantic breezes provides ideal conditions, giving the wine its fresh acidity and aromatic complexity. Three different Chardonnay clones are used for the wine, which together produce a harmonious and multi-layered structure.The grapes are carefully harvested by hand and gently pressed as whole bunches to preserve their natural fruitiness. Gentle fermentation in stainless steel tanks, cement and plastic eggs ensures purity and freshness. Ageing on fine lees with regular batonnage over three months gives the wine additional body and texture.The Eikendal Janina Unwooded Chardonnay is the perfect accompaniment to light dishes and seafood.
