DeMorgenzon
De Morgenzon is Dutch for the morning sun a fitting name for this boutique property high on the Stellenboschkloof which is the first to be touched by the rising sun's rays. De Morgenzon's high altitude vineyards command sweeping views of Table Mountain and Cape Point where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet. Embracing the philosophy that a biodiverse and ecologically sensitive environment produces infinitely better grapes proprietors Wendy and Hylton Appelbaum have established De Morgenzon as a 91 hectare garden interspersed with 55 hectares of carefully tended vineyards where abundant wildflowers flourish between the vines. The vineyards are currently farmed naturally and the estate is in the process of converting to organic farming.
Description
This Chardonnay presents aromas of white peach and citrus blossom. The palate is rich and intense, featuring waves of ripe pear, citrus, and a subtle floral lift, all supported by well-judged oak notes. The finish is lingering, with fresh mineral tones.
Food Pairing
This Chardonnay pairs well with freshly caught grilled fish, complementing the wine's fresh mineral tones and citrus notes.
