De Wetshof
The name De Wetshof has been synonymous with the production of fine wines in South Africa since the 1970’s. As the first registered wine estate in the Robertson Wine Valley De Wetshof has become known internationally as South Africa’s eminent Chardonnay House due to the pioneering role it played in introducing this noble Burgundian grape to the country. The De Wet family’s winemaking heritage can however be traced back to 1694 when the first De Wets arrived at the Cape and immediately made a mark on the South African wine industry. Today De Wetshof is one of the few third generation wine estates in South Africa. Here Danie de Wet proprietor and cellarmaster is assisted by sons Johann (viticulture and marketing) and Peter (winemaker).
Description
The 2023 De Wetshof Finesse Chardonnay offers citrus flavors such as lemon and lime, balanced by a characteristic nuttiness on the mid-palate. The wine finishes with vibrant acidity and lingering minerality, reflecting the influence of the rocky limestone-rich soils in which the grapes are grown.
Food Pairing
It pairs well with grilled or barbecued meats like lamb chops, sausages, and seafood such as grilled fish.
