Of delicate golden color, the Uva Mira Icon Chardonnay presents itself in the glass and ensnares the nose wonderfully perfumed, pure and precise. The first aromatic expression is nutty, which then evolves to reveal a stony minerality and chalky chalky hints. Added to this is a beguiling floral fragrance that brings a wonderful complexity to the bouquet with aromas of orange blossom and lime. Despite its concentration, this is a wine that emphasizes elegance and balance over power, and feels lively and lifted with a gentle hint of orange peel. On the palate, the wine unfolds with finesse and grace with nuances of fresh persimmon fruit, subtle earthiness and almond notes that persist with delicate orange blossom scents. The lively structure with chalky acidity makes it appear rich and taut at the same time with intense purity. A true work of art and the créme de la créme of the best Chardonnays in South Africa!
