Eikendal Janina Unwooded Chardonnay

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. Enjoy it at 12 to 14 degrees Celsius with fresh Caesar salad, creamy Brie or grilled tuna - a versatile white wine with character and elegance.

Product recommendation

Eikendal Infused by Earth Cabernet Franc
This exceptional Eikendal Infused by Earth Cabernet Franc comes from a particularly barren and stony section of the Classique vineyard, characterized by so-called "Koffieklip", deep clay and weathered granite. The vines grow there without artificial irrigation under natural stress conditions - the result: small, highly concentrated berries that produce a powerful yet elegant red wine.The grapes are harvested selectively in three stages of ripeness - from pre-fruit-fresh to fruit-fresh to ripe - which gives the wine a fascinatingly complex spectrum of aromas. A small proportion of whole grapes provides additional freshness and mineral notes. After a particularly long maceration period and natural spontaneous fermentation, the wine is matured for 12 months in 500-liter French oak barrels, whereby untoasted barriques do not mask the fine varietal character.In the glass, the Eikendal Cabernet Franc impresses with intense aromas of dark berries, herbs, fine spices and a hint of graphite. The well-integrated acidity, silky tannins and mineral undertone make it an extremely exciting and long-lasting red wine.Serving tip: This wine develops particularly harmoniously at a serving temperature of 18-20 °C. It is the perfect culinary accompaniment to aromatic dishes such as lamb meatballs in tomato sauce, roast turkey with cranberry sauce or warm camembert with rosemary - a highlight for any autumn/winter menu.Ageing potential: up to 20 years - ideal for collectors and lovers of characterful red wines.

Eikendal Chardonnay
The Eikendal Chardonnay is an expressive white wine from Stellenbosch in South Africa that impresses with its elegance and structure. Delicate aromas of orange peel and floral blossom notes meet a firm mouthfeel and lively acidity. On the finish, the wine is fresh, precise and has a clear, mineral core.The grapes come from high-altitude sites on Helderberg Mountain, which are exposed to cool winds from False Bay - a perfect terroir for fresh and exciting Chardonnays. The vines grow on weathered granite with clay and gravel and produce low yields of the highest quality.In the cellar, the grapes are gently pressed as whole bunches to preserve freshness and clarity. Some of the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in wood, while the rest is transferred to French oak barrels after alcoholic fermentation. The Chardonnay matures for a total of 10 months on the fine lees in 500-liter barrels (20% of which are new wood), which gives it a fine creaminess and additional depth.The Eikendal Chardonnay is a wine with ageing potential that goes perfectly with spicy Asian dishes such as Thai green curry, nasi goreng or smoked fish.

Eikendal Infused by Earth Chardonnay
The Eikendal Infused by Earth Chardonnay is an exceptional white wine with a clear signature of the terroir. It comes from two small plots of old bush vines, high up on the Eikendal vineyard in Stellenbosch. The vines are deeply rooted in barren, weathered granite with intercalated gravel and white clay - soils that have been stripped of all organic matter. The south-easterly orientation of the rows of vines and the constant influence of the fresh sea breeze from False Bay create a cool microclimate that produces precise, elegant wines rich in finesse.The low yields of just 0.8 to 1 kg of grapes per vine are reflected in the enormous concentration and depth of the wine.The carefully hand-picked grapes were pressed as whole bunches, without prior clarification of the must. Half of the spontaneous fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks, while the other half was matured in a mix of 500-liter barrels made from new French oak (60%) and a granite amphora (40%) - a rare and purist approach in which granite ferments in granite. After 18 months of ageing without fining or filtration, the wine is completely natural and unadorned.In the glass, the Infused by Earth Chardonnay is complex and profound - with notes of citrus fruit, ripe stone fruit, roasted nuts and a hint of wet stone. The structure is powerful yet precise, carried by an invigorating acidity and a salty, almost chalky finish.Serve this multi-layered white wine at 10-12 °C with sophisticated dishes such as roasted turbot with beurre blanc, chicken in a lemon and herb marinade, or a fine vegetable tart with goat's cheese. Also ideal with grilled vegetables or dishes with white truffle oil.Eikendal Infused by Earth Chardonnay is a fascinating wine that uncompromisingly expresses the terroir of its origin - puristic, deep and unforgettable. A must for explorers and lovers of special white wines.
