About the wine
Luxurious, old-vine coastal Chardonnay from a South Africa specialist
- Crisp apple and pear flavors tangle with a tangy touch of citrus and a smooth oaky creaminess in this complex, barrel-aged Chardonnay that ends with a long, generous finish.
- Thanks to his connections to some of South Africa’s top vineyards, winemaker Johan Kruger sourced this Chardonnay from older vines growing in and around the Stellenbosch and Paarl regions, near South Africa’s cool-climate coast.
- Your funding helps Johan carry on his family's winemaking legacy in Stellenbosch and lets him get dibs on the region’s most sought-after grapes. In return, you get world-class wines that show off South Africa’s best side.
Best before
This Chardonnay is delectable now, but will also age well for the next 2 to 5 years.
Serving advice
Please use a nice big glass to ensure all the flavors unfold as the wine airs out and opens up.
Food match
Scallops, basically most kinds of shell fish and sea food all make perfect pairings with this coastal Chardonnay.
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Johan Kruger
- When Johan started Kruger Family Wines, he’d just tossed away a cushy Stellenbosch job to follow his dream. But money was tight. He ended up renting a place to make his own wines and spent all his time on the road selling them – the last place he wanted to be.
- ....That's when you came along! With your help, we happened upon Johan – and knew he was just the kind of insanely talented, up-and-coming winemaker Angels were born to champion.
- Now Angel funding is poised to help Johan to plant new vineyards (and rescue old ones!) expand his winery and his whole operation. He’s gobsmacked by all the love and support!
