DeMorgenzon Reserve Chardonnay has a delicate golden colour with fresh green inclusions in the glass and an irresistible aroma of freshly baked brioche and tangy fresh orange marmalade. Its backbone of fine lime and lemongrass on the palate marries beautifully with delicate floral notes of sweet clover and frangipani flowers. The finish is a masterpiece of Chardonnay with warm and rich vanilla and a final of creamy almond.

The grapes for this Chardonany were hand picked with great care and then pressed all over the bunch. The resulting juice was put into French oak barrels, where the fermentation process began naturally without the addition of any commercial yeasts. 35% of the barrels used in this process were made of new wood. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was left to mature on the lees for 11 months, after which the best barrels were selected for the rest of the production process. The selected barrels underwent a further 3-month aging process and were then bottled and corked after minimal filtering.
