Beneath the Clouds

Dill cured Gravdlax with cream cheese & Lemon zest.

Maturation on gross lees for 9 months provides balance and texture.

The aim with our Beneath the Clouds is to produce an expressive, aromatic and lightly wooded style of Chardonnay in our cool and cloudy climate of Elgin. We achieve this by fermentation in older barrels, larger barrels and a small component in steel tanks.

Oak Valley is situated high along the Groenlandberg Mountain Range in one of the coolest wine growing regions in South Africa; Elgin. Attention to detail in the vineyards and our minimalist intervention approach in the cellar is what shapes our cool climate wine styles. Oak Valley’s signature is elegance.
