Iona
Iona is the coolest vineyard in the Cape 420m above sea-level high above the picturesque Elgin Valley. It is surrounded by the Kogelberg Nature Reserve and overlooks the Atlantic Ocean in the South. In a country where cool sites are precious these vineyards are like gold — the grapes ripening up to two months later than other Cape vineyards and in perfect balance.
Description
This Chardonnay exhibits bright citrus and white stone fruit aromas, complemented by oyster shell minerality and a hint of brioche. The purity of fruit, combined with well-judged oak and fresh acidity, results in a layered and complex wine with a lingering finish.
Food Pairing
The wine pairs excellently with seafood dishes, poultry, and creamy pasta, enhancing the flavors of these culinary delights.
