Boschendal Estates Chardonnay

For those fans out there of buttery oakey California Chardonnays, how about exploring a new wine region? South Africa has similar climate and growing conditions to California. They make very flavorful, full-bodied, oak (depending on the producer), tropical fruit wines. This producer Boschendal Estates was founded in 1685. This Boschendal Chardonnay 2018 is dry, full bodied, medium acid, flavors of butter, caramel, Golden Apple, vanilla, pineapple, banana, cloves and ripe pear.

Served chilled with grilled chicken, roasted pork loin or potatoes with fresh herbs. It’s economical and delicious
